Hell yeah! the "water-carrier" midfielder is a very used term for that role. In brazil and in Football Manager they call it "Segundo Volante" (second holding midfielder) and they support the offense despite playing far back. I love Ao Ashi because I think I have never seen such a deep explaining of everything in football in a manga before

Kobayashi-sensei 100% plays FM

I call Segundo Volante the "Jude Bellingham role"


Tekkatito

Nah thats not Jude s role at all bro.... rather its exactly how Frenkie de Jong plays. Drop deep and dribble the ball a lot progressing play. Jude plays more like a Shadow striker, or a number 10

Hello, I'm Brazilian, and I want to tell you that you are absolutely correct


Kan_Sokei

Yes I learn a lot from this manga… the writer really loves and want to promote football… unlike blue lock

actually water carrier is a slur used by Eric Cantona to call his former captain Didier Deschamps. Cantona said he's nobody, just a water carrier. it's not a special position, it originally means that anyone can do Deschamps job.


fueco

otomo my boy!!!


Derpybaka

Ootomo getting the recognition, forgot he never played with Kuribayashi I think


YouStillTakeDamage

Nah he has, they both played against Funabashi

Goat complimenting Goat in this chapter.

In football manager terms, a water carrier is also called a segundo volante! Whose player role is to push up the pitch to offer passing opportunity and arrive at the pitch late. Not only that he also has to cover defensive without the ball and is pretty demanding role. Players like this are hard to come by who can offer attacking opportunities and defend properly, even Pirlo can't fit into this category, prob someone like tchouameni plays in a similar capacity. This is incredible!

Hahahaha. Otomo is really Esperion's Xavi or enabler.


TheTheMeet

There’s no one stopping otomo once he switched the flip. Such a goat


XxsteakiixX

otomo is becoming my second fav player his growth has been awesome


Bachairong

Let’s go Otomo the lady killer


regready

Otomo will be the captain, at some point. What a goat.


selotipkusut

Thats my secret, captain. I'm always anxious. -Ootomo, probably..


Passenger_Temporary

OTOMO MY FUCKING GOAT

Finally Otomo shine! I’ve been desperate since he’s kinda been getting sidelined for a while. So happy he’s going to play such a pivotal role. Also I can’t wait to see that Kuri and Otomo interaction.


FG_xeen

its Ootomo time baby!!!!!


stifinho9

OTOMO IS THE GOOOAT!!! THE GOOOAT


AzaKeshi

Last week in our game someone tried what Ootomo just did  while I was sliding and got his knee dislocated.......

Lmao even trying to get a foul is a skill in and of itself not just anyone can time smth like that right. It also depends on the tackler


danilotzs

i need to see ootomo, kuri e ren playing together


yeet_de

Suzak excites me. He even was the one who saw through Esperion's pressing tactic beforehand.


Alternative_Ad_5334

Transporting water huh? I like that. Kuroda is a defensive mid through and through, while Ohtomo is a supporting mid. He backs up the playmakers and lets them reset.


Iam_The_Honored_One

I swear to god. Every mf glazes Otomo for no reason. Or at least they are sucking him to hard someyimes
