I have been participating in “Specialist course Periodisation in Football” of World Football Academy in Japan. The new concept “Football Braining” from Raymond Verheijen is really innovative! Learning new things keeps my brain wired and switched on which is very good!!

By the way, I found that Nissin Cup Noodles just released a new ad after “Samurai in Manchester”. Kei Nishikori who is currently 5th in the world tennis ranking plays a role of Musashi Miyamoto in their TVCM now. According to an official press release, that’s really wooden sword Kei is using to volley, backhand, and serve with no CG gimmicks!

 

The Soccer Samurai, who amazed us with his freestyle football skills during the 2014 World Cup, was back in a commercial for Nissin Noodles last fall. With his tireless ambition, Red Samurai embarks on a mission to bring the samurai spirit to Manchester United FC.

 

We hope that your new year would be enjoyable! Make the most of this year to achieve success in all your endeavors.
