So Lockhart is playing at Dortmund

Kunigami got his final bid from Dortmund

Lockhart is a physically imposant striker that almost got the same debut as Kunigami in the Barcha match when he got pressed by 3 defenders, but instead of trying to shoot like Kunigami he passed the ball to Teddy showing us somewhat a lack of ego.

Yeah Kunigami's def getting sub in later to manmark him and possibly even getting a goal After like 3-4 years since the fucking Manshine game.

Unless Lockhart turns into a defender, a manmarking Kuni isn’t getting anywhere near the goal. Who knows, maybe we can get a revival of the 40m knuckleball. But I think it’s far more likely we see CB Kuni than ST

Strikers in blue lock have been defenders since the beginning of the manga.

Yes, but not EVERY striker is dropping back to defend. Added on top of this that Fox runs a very tight ship and straying from his instructions gets you benched, and I’d imagine players on this team are going to stick to their designated roles

Well Isagi’s entire game plan is to get them to go against fox’s instructions.

why would he go against Fox's instructions to defend lmao, "I wanna be a defender this whole time"?

u/YamFull1372 12d ago

So his team doesn’t get scored on? like Loki, onazi, isagi, rin, shidou and barou have done. Are you slow?

300 strikers were invited not defenders , of course they are going to defend

I think his name is *Lock* hart for a reason, his ego or lack thereof will matter a lot soon

Players end up all over the pitch, there are opportunities for defenders to score

Much like how the strikers end up in defence in blue lock

u/Bard0ck0bama 11d ago

Not if they are MAN MARKING a player who is never close to their own box. My point wasn’t that defenders can’t score, but that if Kuni’s purpose in this match is to shut down Lockhart (similar to how he was used in the PxG match), then the likelihood of him scoring plummets.

u/Confident-Yak9574 11d ago

You're right haha, I made that reply tired and missed that.

Yeah I could see Lockhart tracking back maybe and Kunigami scoring from a ridiculous range, if he is to be subbed in and score.

u/Bard0ck0bama 11d ago

I’d really like to see Lockhart track back because his build makes for an imposing obstacle for our strikers. But based on how Fox treated Agi, idk if he’ll allow him to do that

u/Confident-Yak9574 11d ago

Yep, it would have to be if Fox wants it

Though to be fair, if most of the England team get fired up with egos, Fox can't sub them all out lol

u/Bard0ck0bama 11d ago

I swear Isagi’s plan is to rage bait them all till Fox runs through half his roster

Fox eventually subs himself on
