Definitely not a legend. Legend is a word that is banded about all too easily these days. Larsson legend? Most definitley. Naka? No. Good player though and his two free-kicks against Man Utd will live long in the memory. Seems like a nice guy too.

No way can Nakamura be considered a legend of Celtic Football Club. He is undoubtedly a decent player but is far too inconsistent, struggles to make his mark in a game, lacks pace, lacks strength and does not create as many opportunities as he used to do. Although his technical ability is axiomatic, he is not the type of rough and ready player (like Robson or Sutton) nor the majestically gifted (like Larsson and Moravcik) that us Celtic fans become attached to. To be described as a legend of Celtic takes a lot more time to achieve than 3 inconsistent years in Scotland. Compare him to Henrik Larsson, Paul McStay, Tommy Burns, the Lisbon Lions etc and you will see he pales in comparison.

haha ranger "fans" posting comments is hilarous
all you ever get is
blah blah obviously doesnt want get humped in europe and lge haha we so funny and orignal

OUT OF EUROPE BEFORE queens of the south
and no title in 3 years SHUT UP and go leave comments about your club and how they are hard done by and everyone is out to get ya's etc etc :P

to post a more honest comment from an actual celtic fan.....

naka obviosuly wants to go home ,due to family reasons which is fair one least he is being honest about it and a reckon he will be a great lose
Naka is a legend who will stay fresh in the memory for long time(wonder goal against gers anyone?not to mention numerous set pieces!)

a hope we do not lose him in january as he is a class act,but if we do,thanks for the memories

i'll miss Naka's obvious love for the club and his moments of sublime brilliance. unfortunately scottish football doesn't always favour flair players and in the physical games Naka can be sidelined or go AWOL. he's not a legend but he's scored some first-class goals in crucial matches - i think his screamer against Rangers last season was a pivotal moment in the season - and i would hope all Celts will wish him and his family well as he always seems like a nice straightforward guy and who could deny his wish for his kids to grow up in Japan. there's also something of a Naka legacy in terms of Celtic's popularity in Japan and the extra pull we can exert on signing quality players from Japan as a result - hopefully Mizuno will come through in good time.

No Nakamura isn't a Celtic legend.
He is a very talented player, but the word legend is used far too easily these days.
He's definitely a player I'll remember though.
I'll be sad to see him leave.
I'll gladly wish him good luck in the future and say thank you for everything he has done for Celtic!

Hail Hail!

Well obviously the free kicks against Man Utd, one which put us into the last 16 and the wonder goal against rangers. His title winning free kick at Killie. A hat-trick against Dundee Utd and a screamer against St Mirren (i think) few seasons back. A bit inconsistant yes but probably as good as you'll get from a player because no good player will be at one club too long these days. Don't know about legend but great player that will be missed.

good dead ball, could take a man on and could pick a pass. Legend ? By no stretch of the imagination.
