Admin’s Note

I’m quite concerned about Roki Sasaki’s situation. Given his talent, I’m worried about how his current struggles might affect him. From Manager Roberts’ comments, it’s clear that there are high expectations for him. While it’s certainly important for the player to have a sense of urgency, the environment and support around him are also crucial. I hope to see him thrive in the future.
