..HOW DID I NOT TALK ABOUT THIS BEFORE!? OH MY GOD-
I LITERALLY READ THIS THE SECOND IT DROPPED ARE YOU KIDDING ME-
Ah, well.. Pardon for my outburst and let's carry on with the basic info and some of my thoughts!
As you know I'm a huge fan of horror, it's nothing much to take pride in.. However! If you can recall, many years ago I had brought up the recommendation of Dolly Kill Kill, no? Well, I had in fact did!
If you're wondering why I'm bringing up Dolly Kill Kill, a horror manga, when I'm talking about a sports one? Well simply, because it's the same artist! Another favorite horror manga creator of mine also works on it!

Summary:
The story begins with Japan's elimination from the 2018 FIFA World Cup, which prompts the Japanese Football Union to start a programme scouting high school players who will begin training in preparation for the 2022 Cup. Isagi Youichi, a forward, receives an invitation to this programme soon after his team loses the chance to go to Nationals because he passed to his less-skilled teammate —who missed— without trying to make the game-changing goal by himself. Their coach will be Ego Jinpachi, who intends to "destroy Japanese loser football" by introducing a radical new training regimen: isolate 300 young strikers in a prison-like institution called "Blue Lock" and put them through rigorous training aimed at creating "the world's greatest egotist striker."

You've most likely have seen the anime and know what's up! Great manga I highly recommend reading it and it's spin-off series: "Episode Nagi"
(All Pages Are from chapter 1 to avoid spoilers)
One of my favorite sports manga (ignoring the fact two favorite people are working on it), it's great, thrilling, and just a must read!
