2012/14 Shinji Kagawa @ Manchester United (ENG/CL) Thread [R]

REAL MADRID - MANCHESTER UNITED.

Well, Shinji, time to shine.

 

WHAT THE F**K!

This is like a final, please Shinji show them what you were made for! Go for win!!!

 

He already on full training... hope he will play at Boxing day.....

 

he joined the warm up session before the newcastle game, so i think he will play this weekend against west brom

 

shinji is back! starts today against west brom

 

I can't even remember when was the last time when I watched Manchester's game... Good news!

 

I heard he did good, especially for his first game back from injury. any comments or videos?

 

ball touch

 

Watch the first time FA match (while doing other stuff), not so impressive performance by Shinji.

 

Shinji with positivity wins the game at the end . SHOW SOME CONFIDENCE MAN!!!

He appears to be suffering with a very common dose of first season EPL jet lag, and probably won't be getting many more chances to play his way out of it from the central AM spot once Rooney returns to fitness either, but frustration aside, SAF playing Kagawa from the left may just be the best thing for everybody right now.

 

Hammers hammered him.
And he need the "Messi treatment" to bulk up.
However till Rooney is injured he will treat any future matches before UCL match against Madrid as a final exam.
Go Shinji, don't look back!!!

 

He wasn't getting beaten up out there though. Even with West Ham putting 9 hunters behind the ball for 90 min's, I didn't see any of their players even need to get physical with Kagawa once, and that's not because Shinji was particularly elusive in possession of the ball either....

But whenever fit, Rooney starts, as Kagawa's still not producing the necessary levels of intensity/speed to his all round game right now to compete against the teams main 4 strikers.

I still feel as long as Valencia and Young remain as useless as they are right now, Man Utd's best line up still includes the attacking trio of RVP, Rooney, and Kagawa at it's core, but only with Kagawa starting from the left of a 4-2-3-1.

 

Seriously, in this cup match, he got few time lose the ball which not acceptable... jut not like a professional football player.

 

The phrase about hammers and hammered was a joke based on West's nickname.
I know he did pretty bad but it was a very physical match in all sense and he is not familiar with the PL fast play, faster than the BL.
Than I said that every single match.(he will play) from here to Rooney's recovery will be a final exam to be chosen by SAF for the UCL match vs Madrid.

 

Are you using Google Translator or something?

 

U want me make the match highlight video for u.....

 

He meant your post was so weirdly worded to the point it hardly made sense as a correct englih sentence. Which is why he asked.

Eg.. "he got few times lose the ball" makes no sense. "he lost the ball a few times" is better.

 

That's a nice way of saying loads of direct long balls , but that cup match wasn't close to being as physical as it will get for Kagawa in England, as West Ham never really targeted him for the kinds of special treatment he'll really begin to receive once he actually demonstrates the real threat he can pose within a SAF team.

Even with Rooney being injured again, Kagawa's still indecisive central creative play makes sure he won't see any more time in Rooney's central AM position (this season) with RVP around and fully capable of dropping deeper to create/dictate play.

So headed into the final third of the season, Kagawa's best bet for regular game time probably comes in the form of Ashley Young's left wing position, with Nani likely taking over from Valencia on the right, to finally provide the something different to the teams current wing related black hole issues.

 

Simply not.
He will have others chances in Rooney position.
However we will see in the next 2-4 weeks.

 

LOL, you think SAF will start Kagawa over of RVP to link up with Chicharito then?

I'm sorry, but whenever Rooney's now unfit to play, RVP will drop back into Rooney's spot (see match vs Wigan), with Chich or Welbeck ahead of him.

Thanks to Kagawa's inability to demonstrate any real ability to orchestrate/direct the teams creative moves from the centre of the field (like Rooney), Kagawa's already failed the central AM test for this season, but with the wide players currently being so , that doesn't mean he won't play any more either.

 

Sorry about my poor english...

 

Kagawa´s chance is over in Europe.

Time to return to Cerezo!!

 

No......

 

He should have stayed at Dortmund. I get the sense that he didn't quite realize how good he had it there. A starring role (playing his natural position) on one of the best teams in Europe vs. ..... this. Heck, Dortmund may even be the better team. They're certainly more entertaining to watch than this ManU team. But he couldn't resist the allure of the prestigious ManU name. I know that prestige counts for a lot in Japan, and that he is suddenly famous over there just by virtue of joining ManU. But wouldn't he rather be having a good season?
