Needs looked at again. The composure to kill the ball after the defender's missed header, the fake volley, the finish with the ball in mid air.
Damn, that skill for the dummy was pure filth.

Looked good since they first signed him, but his current run of form and performance/goal today have been top quality

The calmness required to pull off a couple of pieces of skill on the edge of the six yard box and then volley it in. Seriously impressive goal.

Looks very good and at this stage of his career is at the right club with the perfect coach to develop and progress. Suprised Chelsea have not put in a £80 million bid yet, still got time till the end of the window though.

Signed for less than £5m. Insane little player.

Was Mitoma always this good or has he found a new level at Brighton?

Baller. has a chance to become the best Japanese player ever. Nakata, Nakamura and Kagawa the current top three I guess.

Thats puskas l. cant stop watching it
Same here. There's so much composure, skill and innovation in those few seconds.

This is why football is the greatest sport. You can watch thousands of games from multiple teams across the globe spanning multiple decades and still be surprised on a relatively regular basis.

His dribbling is Kvaratshkeila tier. Such a 1v1 threat. Exact type of player Ten Hag was talking about when he said he wants fantasy, chaos and adventure in the final third.

Kind of goal you dream about when you are a kid on a playground. Showing that kind of composure and creativity at the very last minute against Liverpool to win a cup tie is something truely special '

He's like that main character in Netflix anime, Blue lock.

He does all sorts of formula and thesis in 0.0001 seconds to execute his next move. Typical anime player. Sign him up.

He probably epitomizes how Brighton work and scout their players. Sublime technically, brilliant in tight spaces, confident and poised. Magnificent signing.

Between all the players Celtic has signed and the run that Mitoma is on, Japanese football is very exciting right now with WC '26 on the horizon.

No wonder he's so good, dude is the only player with a degree in dribbling.

That's the best goal I've seen in years. Pure filth.

Are these posts serious? It's a decent goal.
Yeah it’s a good goal but the reactions are OTT. It’s not like it’s anywhere near the quality of Rooneys bicycle kick vs city for example or even Ibra vs England.

Decent.

Rio Ferdinand scored a better one against Liverpool.

Touch of perhaps Zola or Bergkamp to it?

He’s absolutely brilliant. Wonder if this season is just a huge prolonged purple patch, but looks like he can become one of the very best in the league.
