Passable if not good episode due to the pure fact that we actually see them training but still not as good as the original.

My biggest complaint is that they hospitalized Gouenji and I totally see why. My theory is because he confirmed a world class striker so we have no reason to not make everyone of Japan matches until the Asia finals Gouenji fest 2018-19. This of course would ruin everyone else screen time or at the least the other striker specifically Goujin. So rather than put on their thinking caps and find a reasonable answer to this problem they instead went with the easy option and just hospitalized him.

Of course this is all coming from another sceptic fan that believe the government secretly hiding aliens in area 51 so take it as you will.

If my theory is true though he will prob come back at the Asia finals somewhen around then. As the team will have time to catch up by then and also because we should be running into other world class players around then.
