    Well, nothing in Europe maybe. He went back to Japan to ensure playing time so he'd be picked for the 2010 World Cup and since then, won J.League POTY for the second time (2013), becoming the only multiple-time winner in the history of the league (he also won it in 2000). And he's still playing in J.League now at the age of 39, extending his lead as all-time direct free kick goalscorer every so often when he puts another one in.

    11 years ago today, Naka scored a majestic free kick against Man Utd to secure Celtic's qualification to the last 16 of the Champions League for the first time.

    Artur Boruc also saved our arses by blocking a last minute penalty from Louis Saha.

    What a player this guy was. Closest to Lubo in terms of skill and natural ability.

    Wouldn't mind a player of Naka's set piece capability in the team now. An incredibly useful player on his day.

    Should bring him back as a set piece coach/player. Sick of not having decent set piece takers (Griffiths isn't always playing).
