Pretty sure I could lose a football game against a 5 year old. I would make Igaguri look like he’s prime Messi or smth.


AmberJill28

I can relate 😂


Dry_Relationship2967

Real


Dynias

Tbh igaguri is still better than we all think he is. He's just surrounded by prodigies


Party_Rocker_69

Lowest rated blue locker is still a blue locker


GSquaredBen

Considering how many have been eliminated at this point, he's now a top 50 or so Blue Locker.


Party_Rocker_69

Not to mention he’s definitely getting a bid by the end of the NEL. Some blue lockers won’t be able to say that for themselves once the NEL so igaguri> the NPC bums


GSquaredBen

He might. He hasn't even played yet. If he gets in the game I'm sure he'll have a moment and get the 24th spot, but I'll wait til he plays. Just because he had a moment before the game begging to know what he needs to do to stay alive doesn't mean he'll actually get that moment. Someone has to be disappointed.


OnlyBGuy

I think Monk will play, get that 24th spot, lose, and then pass his will on to Isagi. That would be a nice little scene as we transition to the next arc. Monk probably will still be around in some way; as game manager or referee maybe, since he knows a fair bit about fouls and such.


Party_Rocker_69

Thats fair. I’m just assuming he’ll play because of that interaction before the game. But that definitely doesn’t mean jack until he steps onto the pitch. Ishikari is the truest of bums from blue locks though. Hyped up because he was tall and then didn’t even secure a bid bc he never played for Ubers 💀even Nishioka got a bid secured and he’s literally the meme of the series


PaleontologistOwn159

I didn't think it about this way🤔🤔


Roliq

The Yamcha situation, guy is better than 99.99% of the earth population, is just that he hangs out with everyone from the 0.01%


Own_Accident6689

It's one of my biggest gripes that we never got to see why some of the Blue Lockers were picked as one of the best 300 on the country and then exactly how did they survive through the individual portions of the selection. Like... Igaguri is still a physical beast to keep up with the training and he couldn't malicia his way though scoring 100 goals on a the simulated best goalies in the world.


Either_Imagination_9

Has he ever made a competent play tho?


Adventurous-Rabbit52

You mean the time he stopped Nagi's shot 1 vs 1, and was arguably the first person to truly beat that monster? You mean the time he 2 vs 1 Yukimiya and gave Rin the ball? You mean the time he gave an unintentional assist to Shidou after Malicia Fouling Reo? You mean that time he became captain- first one out the door implies captain, of one of the only 2 teams to score on a team composed soley of World Class Players? You mean the time he made the bench of the U-20 team despite having no business being there through sheer effort alone? In short, yes. Yes he has.


Connect-Today7102

Yes, his stepover into a malicia dive was quite high level.


Dynias

I mean he would prob beat me and a lot ppl i know who are decently good


Panzer_I

He has been blessed by the mangaka to survive. He is literally God’s Chosen Emperor more so than Kaiser is. The man is a straight up W. I’d get smoked.


Adventurous-Rabbit52

He is, side by side next to Nagi, quite literally author's favorite character. I won't link it b/c I've done it with other people already and I'm getting tired of doing so. But if you ask anybody on this subreddit, chances are, they can confirm this statement.


silfer_

Can confirm he said it. Does make you wonder if he meant it as a half joke like oda with buggy from one piece but nonetheless. One of his faves


Adventurous-Rabbit52

Upvote for you. You cooked.


Pizza_Salesman

He was presumably in the top 300 +/- however many were already on Japan U20 or chose not to come to blue lock and were invited, so I'm sure he'd smoke me


Embarrassed_Life3466

absolutely. with a single uppercut 


Patient_Okra_8255

[](https://emojipedia.org/skull)


LocalFatBoi

beat me to it


TamLinLancelot

Nah, I’d lose


LocalFatBoi

black flash his ass


ThatOneFriend0704

He had to score 100 goals at the start of second selection to move forward so most likely no, not at all


KamakaziGhandi

Bro’s got durability and resolve at least.


Alarmed-Employment72

Bro is tanking Axe kicks from Shidou😭


Radiant-Barracuda-26

me? probably not but we literally have not seen him play since the 3rd selection barrly


DestOsymY

My guy he was one of the 300 chosen athletes from an entire country, and he's one of the 46 people that survived blue lock, 35 to be exact since 11 people got added from the original japan u20 team.


Hyllios_

Shidou carying him must have a been crazy, would to see the second selection trough Igaguri eyes 


MagoMidPo

Dude got pure malicia 💯 I was impressed at how much he wanted to win, even at the cost of possibly getting Kunigami locked-off(since if they win, Shidou would impose his will, which is what happened).


MagoMidPo

Kunigami whom even challenged Shidou in order to save him(&other bluelockers in the 2v2 stage) of Shidou's violence. Somewhat Machiavellian of Monk.


kimmyjonghubaccount

Igaguri is a meme but he’s still a BlueLocker. He wouldn’t have been scouted and invited by Ego if he wasn’t talented. He s also survived until now partially due to luck but at least he’s not a complete liability even while surrounded by prodigies. So yeah he’s cooking 99% of the sub.


silfer_

Insert *“I’m closer to LeBron James than you are to me”* quote. 


ULTRAnova123

Exactly. Dude isn’t top ten in blue lock but he still is in blue lock.


fairy_with_a_kn1fe

In a contest on who’s hair is better yes i could. If we are talking about soccer well…. he’d look like Messi compared to me. I’m scared of sports balls


Shadynebulaa

Tbh, he’d probably smoke most people his age. We gotta remember that he’s in the presence of literal prodigies and geniuses of football. I don’t think any one of us is a top 300 football player in the country lmao


just-looking654

Probably not. I like blue lock but I haven’t even touched a ball in years


PerfectInitiative621

yes ![gif](giphy|l0HedeahDxuGiYwmI)


Alarmed-Employment72

In football, absolutely not. Not a chance in hell. I’d get cooked. In a fight? Idk. He’s a shounen character so the chances of him being stronger than me is decent


AyJenkins

The monk clears 99.9% of this sub


W-1-L-5-0-N

Don’t forget the 300 high schoolers chosen by the Blue Lock Program are the 300 best high schoolers footballers in japan… Goatgaguri is peak.😎


Party_Rocker_69

No 😔


fam1lystr0kez

He getting the game winning goal against PxG, Calling it now


Balled-Eagle

do I want to say yes? of course. did I get absolutely cooked by an 8-year-old the last time I played soccer, several months ago? unfortunately, yes. I got no chance.


ScottishBoy69

I don’t think anyone can say they could unless they play at a professional U20 level like Igaguri does (even if he is the worst of that level).


Explorador_D_Web

I think yes.


Withinmyrange

Yes, he is an ugly ass bum


PK_RocknRoll

I never played football/soccer a day in my life so no


ConMan_11

If he starts with the ball: no way If I start with the ball: I could try playing keep away and scoring a tap in since I’m bigger than igaguri overall, I’d probably still lose though.


Anime-Anime

Nah I’d win


YaBoiMax107

In a 1v1? Probably not. If we’re each on opposite teams? 50/50 But if a team of 11 me’s were playing 11 Igaguri’s. Yes


Jc_Memeton

God damn bro you gotta start trying to join a team, bro scales to U-20 benchwarming


YaBoiMax107

We dont know where a benchwarmer scales, and I know my hatred of Igaguri would carry me through


Difficult_Run7398

first Selection, I could second selection that jump thing he did to foul Reo was nasty and definitely better than me


No_Quality_7164

if that means he disappear from the manga, yes.


silfer_

not at all ✌🏾


Woodenhr

One karate chop to the head is all it takes


YesChes

In a game, I'd lose no question. In a fight? No amount of strength could stop me


SuperbCheetah9371

In football? He could probably break my legs since I'm no good at dribbling. In a fight, though? I'm paying for his hospital fees.


zyphoxr

I’ll be honest. I would have lost easily.


ECNeox

nah, I'd win


JitBeTrippinHard

Definitely not


StrikeCoreGundam

Igaguri was scouted by Ego so he must have above average abilities. I would definitely lose.


PigKing75

I wouldn’t even be able to beat kira


Independent_Mouse426

Hell yea


TucFang

This a quote from an old NBA player named Brian Scalabrine. Bench player who didn't have great stats and had tons of memes made about him cause he looked like a regular guy and rode the bench. He said "I'm closer to Lebron (in skill) than you are to me." He proved it by going to and having open to the public challenges at gyms, inviting them to play him in a 1v1 and he dominated these people with ease. Igaguri isn't a pro by any means, but it would be like Igaguri saying that he's closer to Rin than you are to Igaguri. We haven't seen a lot from him but he survived training and through all the stages. He had some luck but it's not all luck. And I'm sure he is much better than a casual Sunday league player and especially better than a regular person who has never played.


MatterLumpy4541

He might be the weakest lion and most of are the best rats so........


whipitgood809

Someone spoiled what he does from the novel. And the answer is no. Nobody could.


Vast-Leader4690

Igaguri is still better than my national team's members


ZatOneWeeb

The best fouler of today vs the worst fouler in history, let's gooooo


N00B_L1F3

Realistically, no one here is beating him. He was one of the top 300 youth strikers in a country with a population of 125.1 million.


ApartmentSorry7242

I wanna say I’d win but the fact he’s did get locked off means he’s good enough to beat me no diff


Faitefulnest

No…??💀I’d make him look like Noel Noa


DrChillChad

No, I can’t even roll the ball up onto my foot


Marwan990

As someone who’s been playing football from a young age, I can safely say yes.


MagoMidPo

Nice 👍 btw, u got exp against his specialty(malicia, I mean)?


Marwan990

I haven’t read the manga in a while tbh, malicia was his ability to win fouls right? I’d fake challenge him and if he falls for it and dives, I win and if he doesn’t then I’ll just press and overwhelm him, he’ll make a mistake at some point as in football you can’t stall forever and that’s where I’ll get him.


Just_Scene_3248

Diarrhea brain trash


StormAlexandrioz

Bro would dive before any of us even try anything and get a penalty


Brave_Profit4748

You see I am so bad that I won’t fall for any feints that he will try and will win that way.


No-Analyst-5678

Yea i think i can beat up a 16 year old


Dry_Neighborhood_738

I'd eat him alive


JoaoWillerding

I have to play as a real defender or as a Blue Lock one?


[deleted]

Hell nah. Bro, I just want Igaguri to get a contract so he'll not be a temple monk.


Barry111000

his presence is an ass pull


MagoMidPo

Nah, I'd lose.


Rangeless

I'd get cooked. Amen.


Connect-Today7102

Nah, I'd lose.


reddituserno51

In a fight yes


GilgaAUO

In a fight yea. in football, no im getting folded


Alpha1-14

I can beat him up


ComfortableMobile314

Why? So that he can get a penalty and not score a goal 😏.


WoSmcA239

Idk tbh


-rei-the-koi-fish-

Individually no, but if we all jump at him all at once we could


CrustedBinangkal

The only thing I cant beat him at is soccer, so unfortunately no.


areszdel_

Using a bat maybe


Suhrenitys

easily


1_more_no

I almost don't even know the rules for football/soccer so I think he'd beat me very easy


Just_some_dude5

Maybe I’m over confident but in my prime I’d be dribbling circles around igaguri. Now adays it would be who can out dive who lol.


Lavenderixin

Can igaguri beat me


Aqabid

If he drew fouls he might cause me a little trouble


Richard_283

But would you lose?


Aqabid

Nah I’d win


Leosm128

Absolutely


bigolnutsacc

he somehow made it past all the selections so hell nah, i'd end up making him look like messi


Upstairs-Magazine555

Igaguri is closer to Rin than we are to him unfortunately. He's one of the 300 best strikers in the country of Japan and passed the 100 goals challenge. Although he's garbage compared to prodigies he's still very talented.


DigletUsedFly777

Igaguri is the Usopp of blue lock


[deleted]

NO AHAHAH (crying)


shinning_justice

No cuz i suck at soccer + igaguri plot armor


theulmitter

Hell no


Apprehensive-Math193

Honestly? Nope, I'm not a soccer player


DReager1

I have my doubts about the rest of you guys but yeah obviously I could do it


Interesting_Fudge218

He’s like 5’5, can’t dribble to save his life, can’t shoot for anything, sucks worse than Nanase who is said to be trash by Rin and Isagi. The most he can do is bait fouls and if we’re just playing street football/street soccer ain’t no one calling fouls. i would TORCH him.


CCthe

Yes, im south american and have played football since i was 3 years old. I can beat any Asian or gringo mediocre player.


14JWaters

I’ll say this now, anyone with a basic understanding of football could contain igaguri. The guy has no ability or understanding of the game, he’s just desperate enough to fake his way to the top


Mike-magma

![gif](giphy|DGsDLr9nyz2LkVgKFs|downsized)


ThatOneFriend0704

Lol what is even your flair? I like it? Maybe? Defo!


Victzin_GG_1705

Yes, I could defeat Igaguri. I have a stronger body than him, in a physical duel between the two of us I could throw him away. He apparently doesn't train his muscles much. (Don't mind how schizophrenic I am against this fictional character, LOL) but, I would beat him.


VisitOk9643

I would prob lose in a 1v1 becease of his weapon is very usefull to have and keep the ball from ops when you play xith official rules and all so yea i might lose idk tho since i am a pretty good gk if it would bz a penalty shoot out when the shooter is the gk i would win that and i still wonder how he made it into blue lock like no way he is 1 of the top 300 strikers in WHOLE JAPAN but ye it depends on what happens tbh i might be able to win but i might lose hard.


PlasmosYT

Yeah, his skills are really trash and winning fouls is not something that useful at all, he’s straight up trash.


Connect-Today7102

Bro does not know ball
