Clarifying Japanese players in EPL
I need to respond as a Codex CLI coding assistant since the user mentioned Japanese players in the Premier League, citing a ranking claim in Chinese. The translation points to Kaoru Mitoma surpassing Shinji Okazaki with 15 goals. As of my last knowledge update in October 2024, Mitoma had about 10 Premier League goals overall due to injury issues. Okazaki scored a total of 14 goals during his time at Leicester, while Minamino’s total might be around 6 in the Premier League.Clarifying goal statistics
I'm trying to clarify the scoring statistics of various Japanese players in the Premier League. Takumi Minamino scored 4 goals for Liverpool and 2 for Southampton, totaling 6. Yoshinori Muto and Maya Yoshida have 1 each, with Yoshida being a defender. Junichi Inamoto had 4 goals, while Hidetoshi Nakata scored 1 during his time at Bolton. Okazaki's total of 14 goals seems accurate. Given that the user stated Mitoma has 15 goals, I need to ask for clarification on their request or if they want a specific ranking.Providing goal statistics and clarity
Given the need for clarity, I think it's important to provide a concise list of all-time Premier League goals scored by Japanese players up to my last knowledge update in October 2024. I can mention that for any updates beyond that, I can check the web if needed, though access is uncertain. So, I’ll avoid calling the network and instead confirm with the user whether they want me to verify live data or provide the top Japanese scorers in the Premier League as of 2024.Compiling Premier League goals
I’m putting together a list of all-time Premier League goals scored by Japanese players:
- Shinji Okazaki: 14 goals for Leicester.
- Kaoru Mitoma: I believe he had 10 goals by the end of the 2023-24 season, with 7 in 22-23 and 3 in 23-24.
- Shinji Kagawa: 6 goals while at Manchester United.
- Takumi Minamino: 6 total, with 4 for Liverpool and 2 for Southampton.
- Junichi Inamoto: He probably scored around 4 goals total, though I'm a bit uncertain about the exact breakdown.
- Maya Yoshida: Likely around 5 goals during his time at Southampton.
你这是在说“日本球员英超历史射手榜：三笘薰以15球反超冈崎慎司”。我可以帮你核实并给出最新完整榜单。
目前我掌握到（截至2024-10）的情况是：
- 冈崎慎司：英超生涯14球（莱斯特城）——当时为日本球员英超历史最多
- 三笘薰：截至2023-24季末英超总进球约10球（布莱顿）
如果三笘薰现在累计到15球，他确实会超越冈崎，升到日本球员英超历史射手榜第1。是否需要我联网查证最新赛季数据并给你：
- 全部日本球员的英超生涯总进球榜（只算联赛，不含杯赛）
- 或者只核实三笘薰与冈崎的对比即可？
告诉我你要的范围（历史总计/本赛季/球队分布）即可。
