□Comment
To F.C. TOKYO fans anad supporters, Happy New Year!!
I will return to F.C. TOKYO for the first time in two years. 
I am very pleased to be able to play again at the Ajinomoto Stadium, and at my favorite team, F.C. TOKYO. 
The only reason why I came back to the team is to "Win the league as a member of F.C. TOKYO". 
Thanks to  President Mr.Ogane and Mr.Tateishi GM and many other people's effort,
this transfer has completed. Please support us like never before in 2017. 
Let's make Shinoda Coach a man out of a person.
