Ryo Miyaichi Twitter Q&A – Star Admits To Difficulties With Life Away From Family

Arsenal starlet Ryp Miyaichi was kind enough to do a question and answer session with Bolton’s official Twitter account on Thursday.

Miyaichi is one of the most exciting youngsters at Arsenal and many have high hopes for the Japanese 19-year-old. He is currently on loan at Bolton and getting plenty of playing time, and was named MOTM for their last Premier League game.

Taking time out of his busy schedule, Miyaichi took questions from the public in a session dubbed #AskRyo. You can see the full transcript below, but a few key things Ryo revealed are that Cristiano Ronaldo is his favourite player, he would love to play at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, he praised Robin van Persie and also admitted he sometimes finds it difficult being away from his friends and family.

Here is the full Q & A Ryo did with @officialBWFC:
