The main thing he should be looking to improve on next year is his goals tally in my view.
Contrary to popular belief, Kagawa is actually relatively effective in terms of goals and assists(assists should be included, as they are just as important as goals). He actually almost has the same ratio as he had in Dortmund!
Here's a list of the goals/assist ratio of our strikers, AMs and wingers in the Premier League and Champions League:
1. Hernandez: one goal/assist every 75.5 minutes.
2. Rooney: one goal/assist every 79 minutes.
3. RVP: one goal/assist every 84.5 minutes.
4. Kagawa: one goal/assist every 121 minutes.
5. Nani: one goal/assist every 162 minutes.
6. Welbeck: one goal/assist every 268 minutes.
7. Young: one goal/assist every 279 minutes.
8. Valencia: one goal/assist every 369 minutes.
Note that 2 of the 3 players that have done better than Kagawa are goal poachers. Rooney is also more of a striker than a typical AM, really. In terms of effectivity, Kagawa is
far ahead of Nani, Welbeck, Young and Valencia.
Extra fun fact:
Evra's goal/assist ratio in the PL/CL is 297 minutes. That's way better than Valencia, and roughly around the same level as Young, and even Welbeck! Pretty impressive for a soon 32 year old fullback
