Daizen Maeda sent a short message to The Celtic Support last night via Celtic TV and the debut goalscorer was even confident enough to deliver the message in English.
Some Celtic Supporter reaction…
“Love this guy, like a lot of other Japanese people thanking every1 else for allowing them the opportunity to do well. We thank you Daizen & wish you all the best for the future”…
“Wishing you every success Maeda .. Great debut”…
“Speaks better English than Kris Boyd”…
“Very humble and respectful guy. The British and European footballing prima donnas should take note”…
“I am madly in love. I don’t think I can contain it. Him, Jota, Kyogo, Hatate and Guchi. I love them all”…
“Better English than Alex Rae”…
“Confident enough to do the post match in English. Fair play Daizen”…
“Thank you making our Monday night Maeda”…
“I was so impressed with all three of our new bhoy all done exceptionally well in there positions it bodes well for the future. We just need Scott Brown to do us a turn and this title really could be on”…
“What a start, you’re one of our favourite new bhoys already. Welcome to the Celtic family”…
Maeda told Celtic TV after last night’s 2-0 win over Hibs at Celtic Park. “I’m very happy to score and contribute to the team. I’m looking forward to the next few games and contributing more. I was nervous before the game but I thought I could score a goal and I’m very happy to be here. I usually don’t get nervous but fortunately I could convert that feeling into good energy.
Before the game, I decided I would score a goal. I received a good pass from my team-mate (tom Rogic) and I just finished. I have to score a lot of goals. If not, the team can’t reach to become champions and I want to be a player who can lead Celtic.
