Fun fact, although Japan does not have a drafting system like US, college/high school football remains a very important part of their youth system. Recent years, a lot of pro clubs even choose to cooperate with their local school in youth scouting and development. Which means player can choose their preferrable career path rather than focus on college/club solely. Mitoma is still a rare case, because he went from a club youth team (Kawasaki Frontale) to his college (University of Tsukuba), then he went straight back to the first team of his old club. Club youth system of course provide a more professional environment and a closer relationship to the first team. On the other hand, school system brings stability and flexibility to a young athlete. You can always choose to quit football and focus on other option. Even if you are determine like Mitoma, it still provides you a chance to explore other things, like sport science. In terms of standard of play, it is actually quite close. For example, both Shinji Kagawa and Shinji Okazaki came straight from their high school team to domestic top flight club. In fact, Japanese high school football attracts even more spotlight than club's youth team, the recent final of the high school tournament recorded 50868 attendance in the main stadium of Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

its not actually a class thing, most footballers do the bare minimum for studies around 16-18 whilst they're prioritizing the academy and those that break into the first teams make so much money that they stop caring for things like university I'm pretty sure its an entirely different story in places like Germany though

Why on earth would you go to university if your talent is good enough for pro level? You can always go back to school later but it's a no-brainer to invest your efforts where your gifts are. In my opinion, with Mitoma's talent level he has blown 3 or 4 years of doing what he was born to do at the highest level by following a path he didn't have to take at that time.

In "Why England Always Lose" by Kuper & Szymanski, they found out that almost all but 1 or 2 players are from a working class background in the England tournament squds and even PL-wide the British players are 90% working class. I know that Patrick Bamford is regularly mocked for reading the broadsheets because he's "too smart to be a footballer". Meanwhile Eddie Jones (the former England rugby head coach) was chastised for stating the obvious that English rugby is too public school-based and there are no pathways for unearthing working class players.

Apparently, he figured out that a good dribbler looks very little at the ball, so he practiced until he could run with and control the ball without having to look at the ball. This leaves his attention free to focus on the opposing player and the game state.

"You could see the way he runs. He doesn't use step overs." Here in my beautiful country of South Africa people think i'm hating when i say freestyling and fancy dribbling is time wasting. I always tell people that Messi is the best dribbler of all time in PROFESSIONAL football. I am glad there is another player besides Messi who dribbles like Messi. I always say step overs are useless. I say Messi is more effective than Ronandinho coz he is not flashy. All he cares about is losing the defender and creating goals as quick as possible. I've always encouraged and preached that players should study Messi. Now they should study Mitoma and his story. There is nothing i hate more than a dribbler who wastes time. People like Neymar are one of those dribblers. Don't give a defender time to think. If you were to search Kasi football or kasi diski, you would be amazed how much hype they get but they not beating any defenders then call it dribbling. I really hope South African young players study Mitoma coz apparenlty Messi is a god, which is not true. 2008 and Messi was better than 2007 or 06 Messi coz the man kept working hard. Calling him a god as if he did not work on improving is disrespecting him.

this is actaully true. I have been saying it time and again that players should study Messi. He does not care about being fancy. All he wants is to eleminiate a defender. Messi never does a step over or a heel flick, not that he can't, but because they are very time wasting skills. About 3 seconds more is spent doing flicks, heel chops, or stepovers.
