The Missing Volante
We are now three months into the season and we are still awaiting a sight of our new defensive midfielder. Sapporo tried to fob us off with Danilson, but the Columbian forward has yet to settle into the team and clearly has no idea of how to play the anchor role. His height and strength looked as though they would be an asset, but the club has been proved right in rejecting the Hokkaido team's optimistic 500 million yen transfer fee. Stojkovic should cut his losses, and start using the 1.85 metre Dani in a more attacking role. Leave the defensive midfield duties to the twin terriers, Naoshi and Keiji.
