    It says a lot about the person Kazu Miura that he's still playing at this age and everyone seems to still regard him with smiles. I've not heard anyone talk about him as some hanger-on who can't stop playing, but instead he's someone who just has a love of the game and loves to help people enjoy the game. He's not the player he once was, but he's someone who just has an undying enjoyment of it and just likes making people happy. Here's to King Kazu the Panda.

    Kazu should be immortalized as a legend in future football games. Konami has already made several tributes for Kazu in the PES/eFootball Franchise, ironic when he played even before the game was called PES. I think the only player left who has been in the ISS Era, Winning Eleven Era, PES Era, and eFootball Era. 😂

    and i always feel so glad and happy when you begin your videos with your iconic line:
    "So, listen to this..." makes me so excited for the next video already
    ive been watching your videos religiously and ive never missed a single week since i started and i honestly dont know how else to express my gratitude...
    please never stop uploading these videos and never stop doing what youre doing, because as your channel's bio says you truly do have the best football documentaries on youtube.

It’s awesome learning about players from years before the late 90s (which a lot of the players I know well are from the late 90s, besides from legends before) so it’s always nice learning about footballers I haven’t heard about, or remember players I haven’t seen in a while.

      To be called a legend you have to be far more better than just a good player better than everyone else at your era just like pele,cruyff, maradona,both ronaldo the R9 and CR7,messi etc. For example Neymar and TBH he is far better than kazu, no offense i do like ney he is a joy to watch one of my favourite player but not a legend. Why!! ? Because he still ain't done anything special/great to be consider as legend,for me Neymar is just a good player with great talent and skills something which every players wants and a great career something which most of the players wants to have and we can only dream of.

    Kazu es una leyenda viviente del fútbol porque ha jugado por casi 40 años a este hermoso deporte y debido a que supo sobreponerse de la gran decepción que sufrió al no ser convocado al mundial de Francia 98. En cambio, para muchos jugar durante 15 años les resulta demasiado y normalmente se retiran del fútbol profesional apenas cumplen 33 años o menos, alegando que las concentraciones eran insoportables. En verdad., puede que ya no sea el mismo, pero pocos pueden ser disciplinados durante tanto tiempo. Simplemente es ejemplar.
