Thats why we had a strain jobby.
Thank god for that.
What did I miss?
That could (and probably should) have been done to any one of dozens of mega-threads.
Tempted to start wielding an axe myself. Might start with that godawful twitter thread...

What was wrong with the old thread?
It wasn't about Kagawa any more.
It was corrupted and deleted. Feel free to continue your discussions in here.
So the title, where has that been taken from? A quote?
Good job that this thread is then.
From one of many article headlines.
Ah right.
We better get him at this stage, and I say this stage as in mid fecking May.
I hope this doesn't drag on the whole Summer or I'm going to go batshit crazy.
I like him. Very impressed with him when he burst on to the scene with Dortmund. And yes, financially it'd be a good deal given the Japanese market. But first and foremost he's an exciting young player.
No, he's not a winger. Yes, he plays off the striker. Yes, he scores goals more than he assists (27 goals in 44 games one season for Cerezo Osaka).
Let's get that out the way.
Who claimed he was a winger?
If he joins, he will play behind Rooney and that would leave Welbeck on the bench?
It would leave Welbeck and Kagawa as squad players like everyone at United is bar Rooney/De Gea.
Kagawa would be pushed into the Striker group of: Rooney/Hernadez/Welbeck/Kagawa.
Winger group: Valencia, Young, Nani, Park
Although i'm sure he plays Left Wing for Japan?
And Carrick, and Evra, and Valencia (well, not at Etihad).
Nasri
that is a possibility sometimes - but how often has Fergie played the same XI twice running? In case you haven't noticed, it's a squad game
You have a point with Carrick and Evra. Valencia no chance, he's rotated alongside Young/Nani.
When has Nasri talked about Kagawa?
Not really when he's fit and we have a right-back.
End of it, it's the Kagawa thread.
towell-heads? Is that borderline racism?
Nasri a reserve? He's got over 40 appearances for them this season. Hardly a reserve.
Towel-Heads? Really?!
Does he ever take set pieces?
LOL was wondering the same thing.
But agreed he is a winger in the same way Silva is

22 posts in a cuff ruins it. well done lads. about 17 more posts than i thought it'd take. progress. it's all anyone can ask for.
Nobody CLAIMED he was. But people kept coming into the old thread asking if he would play wide or in CM.
I watch a lot of bundesliga, this guy is the real deal, and he is only in his early 20's the potential is huge,would be a brilliant signing in my opinion.
His main strengths are his link up play, his ability to find space and his movement, he is a good finisher, and has a phenomenal workrate. He will drift all over for the ball, pulling out wide when needed too and as i really rate Jurgen Klopp i could not think of a better coach to have groomed him for us. I really hope we pull this off.

Strange that you started your post "No, he is not a winger".
Berbas repalcement?
hes a class player. Watched him a few times.
no - he is a lot quicker than berba and is nowehere near as tall.
Is he generally happy as well?
He's Japanese, of course he's happy!
oh well.........got em mixed up - send in the firing squad (I'll check tomorrer)
hopefully
yeah, really........
appearances???? 91st min sub x 16? dunno - not a starter though was he? don't really care - but make sure you defend him with your life though, a worthy cause - and erm....keep the PC flag flying
jeez - plastic OOT/JCL "Reds" .....feck off with the Glazers who saved Fergie his job and saved Manchester United from their own prosperity and real supporters. Christ this place gets worse by the minute......just in after a bit of a carousel but carry on .........
Whats his favourite colour today?? Oops, wrong player, wrong thread....
Is there any reason to believe we're gonna sign this bloke or is it another case of Sneijder?
