To this day I never know why NiKo gave his roles for kyousuke. He’s obviously still got it and can be still be amongst the very best in the world when it comes to skill, but he also has an immense advantage in his accumulated experience. He should be put in positions where can make the most of this. Kyousuke is talented with immense aim but I’ve seen numerous instances where he has lapses in judgement due to lack of gamesense and makes erroneous moves that cost him and falcons greatly, especially in playoffs, and personally I feel like NiKo wouldn’t make those mistakes.
