- Why did you worry about whether you wear a fixed formula or wear "MIX" in the game against Ingolstadt in the away until just before the game started?

Haraguchi「あのスタジアムは少し、芝が深かったこともあって。ヘルタのホームであるオリンピア・シュタディオンなら感覚がつかめますけど、どちらの方がいいのかなぁと考えながらアップして、最終的には固定式でも出来るかなぁと思って決めたんです」  

- That decision was a huge success as it recorded two assists and was acclaimed also from German media.

Haraguchi「やっぱり、出来ることなら固定式でやりたいから」  

- As you said earlier, is it because you cherish the sense of when you switch back?

Haraguchi"Well, after that, the feeling of the ball touch and the fatigue after the game are different"

- Which will you use when Japan 's match is held in Japan?

Haraguchi
"When I do it in Japan, I will wear a fixed formula, but this time the spikes have evolved considerably in the part of the studs and have not quite even slim down even in the fixed type. I think that it was because there was also it.I think that it was wearing "MIX" if it was the type so far.Hiroki (Sakai) also wear the same spike, but the representative of September When I was in the battle, I was talking to him, "It is so different from what I have been hooked up, so it seems that I can go fixedly for a while after I return to Europe."

  ――今までのものとそんなに違いますか?

Haraguchi"First of all, the material has changed, and the ball touch has become easier to make it easier thanks to this step (due to the line attached from the top of the foot to the toe), which also appears as a result in the game" 

- The performance is improving since entering this season also has the effect of the training which I have been working on over time, but also has the benefit of gear evolution?

Haraguchi"Until now, easy to sprint, easy to run Mercurial (Veiper). On the other hand, on the aspect of ball touch, I feel that Thiempo is better. " 

- Actually, at the time I started wearing Nike 's spike, I was lost either way ... ....


Haraguchi"If it's a sprint,Mercurial (Veiper)Because it was the reason that it was. Now I feel evolution at the ball touch. You say "doing a good job". I wanted you to release it another two or more years ago (laugh) "

- Although the story returns, the game against Ingolstadt who recorded 2 assists is a game just after the representative battle that he talked about the feeling of fixed-type spikes with Hiroki Sakai?

Haraguchi"Oh yeah, there are not only seasons, we also care about the weather forecast." 

- To the weather forecast, is it?

Haraguchi「試合の前日に雨が降ったりしたら、やっぱり、ぬかるんでしまうし。だから、天気やキックオフまで気にして、どちらがいいか考えて、アップのときに試してみて、決めます」  

- Are you particular about the details?


Haraguchi「やっぱり、サッカー選手が唯一選べるものがスパイクだから。そこに違和感があるのはストレスになるだろうし、最高のものを履きたいという気持ちが強いんですよね」  

- So, at the end, can you give us advice for those who choose spikes?

Haraguchi「自分のテンションが上がるものを選ぶといいと思います。今のスパイクは、それを履いたら怪我をしてしまうようなスパイクはほとんどないと思います。そういう時代だからこそ、『カッコイイな』とか、『これを履いてサッカーをしたいな』と思えるようなものを手にとってみたらいいのかなと」  

- What is the best way to wear a spike that you can look forward to playing football?

Haraguchi「そうですね。それが一番だと思いますよ!」  

インタビューが終わり、写真撮影に移ると、「スパイクを、さわってみます?」と原口はこちらにスパイクを差し出してきた。そのスパイクについて、雄弁に語る様子は、スパイクを買ってもらったばかりのサッカー少年のようだった。そしてもちろん、そのこだわりが原口の活躍を支えているのだ。
