Jesus may not love him, but striker Junya Tanaka is not looking back in anger.

Frozen out at Portuguese powerhouse Sporting Lisbon by coach Jorge Jesus, Tanaka has instead vowed to reproduce the kind of form that got him a move to Europe in the first place, after returning on loan to former J. League champions Kashiwa Reysol.

"The main objective for me now is to deliver results and score goals for the sake of the team and for me personally. I am a striker and that is my job after all," Tanaka told Kyodo News after Reysol's 3-0 preseason derby defeat to second-division JEF United Chiba on Sunday.
