Manabu Yamagishi

As a Japanese powerhouse in the defensive midfield, he combines relentless aggression with nearly bottomless stamina that makes him impossible to tire out. While his sometimes fiery temperament can lead to an avoidable foul, he is the team's ultimate anchor, dominating physical duels and locking down opponents with absolute authority. His immense strength makes him a constant force on the pitch who never gives up an inch of grass.
