Which footballers do these Blue Lock characters resemble the most? A thread. ( Part 1)
1. Yoichi Isagi ( Thomas Müller/ Filippo Inzaghi)
Foot: Right
Yoichi Isagi is the primary protagonist of Blue Lock. He's a young forward with quite an average physical build and stamina. But despite his shortcomings, he's one of the most clutch goal scorers in the manga.

Yoichi Isagi is the primary protagonist of Blue Lock. He's a young forward with quite an average physical build and stamina. But despite his shortcomings, he's one of the most clutch goal scorers in the manga.
The reason for this lies behind his excellent football IQ. He's a playmaker who controls the teams offense. He's got amazing awareness of his surroundings and is always in the right place in the right time which is quite similar to how Müller plays in real life.
He's also got an excellent off ball movement which helps him to beat the offside trap and an very powerful volley like Inzaghi.
2. Rensuke Kunigami( Robin Van Persie)
Foot: Left
Personally, I think Kunigami resembles the ex-Dutch striker, Robin Van Persie the most.
Kunigami has an excellent physique and is very strong which helps him hold the ball. He's also got a thunderous left foot and is an expert at

Kunigami has an excellent physique and is very strong which helps him hold the ball. He's also got a thunderous left foot and is an expert at
scoring from outside the box. He's not much of a dribbler but he makes up for it with his strength, clinical finishing ability and positioning which resembles RVP a lot.
3. Meguru Bachira(Ronaldinho)
Foot: Right
Bachira is a forward with a slim build who also plays as a wingback. He's quite a mysterious character with an amazing dribbling skill which helps him get past any opponent. He's got almost every dribbling skill in his arsenal. Scissors,

Bachira is a forward with a slim build who also plays as a wingback. He's quite a mysterious character with an amazing dribbling skill which helps him get past any opponent. He's got almost every dribbling skill in his arsenal. Scissors,
elastico, body feints, roulette. You name it! Now taking his dribbling ability into consideration, I could've also gone with players like Ricardo Quaresma, Ben Arfa or Jesus Corona. But what distinguishes Bachira from these players is his passing ability which is quite similar to
Ronaldinho.
4. Hyoma Chigiri ( Achraf Hakimi)
Foot: Right
Now some of you might be thinking, "Chigiri is a forward. Why is he being compared to a wingback like Hakimi?" The reason why I think he's similar to Hakimi is because of his pace. Chigiri is a counterattacking threat who is also

Now some of you might be thinking, "Chigiri is a forward. Why is he being compared to a wingback like Hakimi?" The reason why I think he's similar to Hakimi is because of his pace. Chigiri is a counterattacking threat who is also
used as a fullback in Ego's 4-1-4-1 system against Japan's U-18 squad. Chigiri is also a very good goalscorer. He likes attacking from the flank and put in early crosses into the box for the strikers.
5. Shoei Baro( Cristiano Ronaldo):
Foot:Right
This guy right here resembles Cristiano Ronaldo in every way possible. From his attitude to the way he plays resembles CR7 more than anyone else. Baro is tall and has a muscular build because of his dedicated training regime. He's

This guy right here resembles Cristiano Ronaldo in every way possible. From his attitude to the way he plays resembles CR7 more than anyone else. Baro is tall and has a muscular build because of his dedicated training regime. He's
got a powerful right foot which helps him score from distance and has his fair share of skills such as nutmegs, heel flick and Ronaldo chop just like CR7 in his United days.
6. Seishiro Nagi ( Denis Bergkamp)
Foot: Right
Nagi's best technical ability is his first touch or in other words his ability to trap the ball. For this one I could've also gone with a striker like Berbatov, but what made me choose Bergkamp over Berba is his creativity. Nagi is

Nagi's best technical ability is his first touch or in other words his ability to trap the ball. For this one I could've also gone with a striker like Berbatov, but what made me choose Bergkamp over Berba is his creativity. Nagi is
quite flexible which also helps to trap the ball even in the most awkward position. He plays as a forward and is used as an attacking midfielder in Ego's Blue Lock 11. He's a creative player who excels in goalscoring as well as providing key passes.
7. Zantetsu Tsurugi (Arjen Robben)
Foot: Left
Zantetsu is a forward with a great physique and a very strong left foot. He's got an excellent acceleration and reaction speed. He likes attacking from the right flank and shooting from distance after cutting inside which is quite
