Yujiro Shinohara

This reserved Japanese defensive midfielder is a nightmare for opponents thanks to his explosive acceleration and peerless defensive intelligence, though his aggression sometimes teeters on the edge of control. Before every match, he insists on soaking his boots in ice-cold and then boiling water for five minutes, an eccentric quirk that leaves his teammates both baffled and impressed. Despite occasionally struggling to read the flight of the ball, his lightning-fast recovery makes him an absolute wall in the middle.
