Crystal palace Star makes history for his country, shows Oliver Glasner has been using him wrong

Since arriving at Selhurst Park, Daichi Kamada has been far from impressive for Oliver Glasner.

   Expectations from the Japan international were high given that he had previously worked with the Eagles coach in Frankfurt.

   Oliver Glasner will be crucial in luring Kamado away from Lazio and to south London, although the move has so far been a disaster for Crystal Palace.

   Daichi Kamada has been used as a defensive midfielder for most of his playing time this season – a role he has struggled to adapt to amid pressure from Lazio, who have criticized Kamada for their “terrible” start to the season, with the Eagles in 18th place.  in the league.

   However, Glasner has jumped to the defense of his summer signing, claiming it is unfair to single out the Japan international as a critic.    Now he was on duty for Japan and proved that his 50-year-old Austrian manager had completely misled him.

   Despite his struggles at the club, Kamado has been called up by Japan for this latest international break as his role for the country remains crucial.

   Kamada started for Japan on Thursday when they faced Saudi Arabia – with the Eagles no.  18, who writes history.

   Kamada started the match at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium in Jeddah and was among the scorers.

   When Kamada scored for Japan on Saudi soil, he made history, becoming the first compatriot to do so and the Eagles ace the seventh in his country’s colors – with the goals expected given Glasner was impressed with Kamada’s finish.

   Kamada was otherwise very reliable in the 2-0 win, completing 91 percent of his passes.

   Such a solid run behind the striker should show Glasner that he abused his summer transfer.

   Although his strengths clearly lie in the role of no.  10 and attack, Glasner pushed Kamado into the role of no.  6 – where he showed some notable performances.

   However, can the free arrival since the summer be to blame when he is being abused by his manager?

   But against Norwich in a 4-0 win, Kamada scored and assisted – contributing to his best performance of the season playing in the No.  10.

   The competition for places here is fierce, with Eberechi Eze unmissable and then Eddie Nketiah and Ismaila Sarr as options on the right.

   Still, we don’t need to force Kamada into the starting line-up amid his struggles – instead, Glasner needs to use him off the bench to gain confidence and form, with this goal for Japan a big one for the latter.
