Great bit of news to wake up to! 
Welcome to MU, you have friend same with you:J.S.PARK,but idont no same or no,thankyou
I am really excited about this signing but don't you think that's a little OTT. Better than the team of Sammer, Moller and Ridle who won the European Champions League (and effectively Euro 96 cos the German team that year was built on Dortmund's spine)? Its certainly the best Dortmund team since 1997 and the fact we've snatched a key cog in that machine is a stroke of genius but better than the 97 team..?
Sounds right, Spoonji Yang-Blada.
Germans I know refer to it as the Klopp project...He changed everything for the club and well, Dortmund are a special club really - their history inspires many
I meant if they were in the newbies.
Anybody know what his injury record is like?
It brought a tear to my eye
Can we get Gotze too btw?
It's tough to leave their club, that's why there's anger about Kagawa with fans...Not easy for Germans to cling to a foreign player so earnestly
But, yeah,
they are one of those special clubs with a very passionate fan base - they remind me of a German version of BarcelonaI suspect it is about to get a hell of a lot worse
Bundesliga is an eighteen team league, so he made 31 out of possible 34 league appearances. Nice going!
You're right, I was talking about this season just finished. I added the part about the injury not thinking straight, having heard it on one of the links posted earlier in this thread where the Bundasliga expert said he missed 5 months of the season. I knew he missed the latter half of last season but it didnt click till you mentioned it right here.

Let's hope we've softened them up for future "transactions" with our professional manner of going about transfers
12 Million I hear?
Brilliant business and gives us plenty more to spend this summer.
Good news this for a lad with that talent and only 23.

So Dortmund are a team of midget cheats with fantastic technique and which are paid a ridiculous amount of salary?
Facebook idiots...
I find this assumption (by absolute fecktards) that because a guy coming from Asia is there to sell shirt absolutely stupid
In that interview of a Japanese reporter on the official website, he says 'he’s not the quickest of players'. Has me a bit worried. Is he slow or just not very quick?
He hasn't got lightening pace but is quite nippy, definitely not a worry.
Yep. He's exactly the kind of player we need.
Kagawa playing through balls for Hernandez from the left or middle with Hernandez using his movement and pace playing on the last defender could be a great feature for us next year. And an added string to our attacking bow.
Love that quote from Hummels.Lets hope he gives the PL defenses an headache.
Ahh, okay. Thanks.
For me, he's already your best passer and most technically decisive player in the squad
I wouldn't argue with that, I can now relax at the thought of not relying on Giggsy almost exclusively to carry these traits into a match.
Still a bit of Summer left, more of the same please SAF!
Haaaaaave you met Paul?
That's racist!!!!
Scholes?
Between the lines in the final third?...Absolutely
Scholes is the best passer I've seen.
He just means he's not a Lennon or a Walcott, or even a Nani. He's quick enough in the areas he needs to be, he's certainly no slouch.
racist
Tough to argue with this as we rarely pass between the lines, Giggs and Rooney are currently out best and both miss many more than they hit.
Rooney isn't better at any kind of passing than Scholes. The latter just plays extremely deep.
And besides adding something special to the attack your team has been missing, he's going to be pressing high up the pitch and closing down everything...You can potentially play a Bielsa sort of high tempo press
Rooney and technically decisive don't belong in the same sentence! Nani and Welbeck are superior to him in that respect.
Mmm Kagawa, Nani & Welbeck
Always reminds me of that line from Seinfeld, 'You're living in the past, man'
...Scholes was that passer but he can't currently add to the attacking third what Kagawa can todayTruth is I think Scholes still can be useful in a setup with Kagawa playing the hole, Paul can play that deep lying playmaker role he once did alongside Carrick or Fletcher
Bit of a muppetry here but how has Sahin done for Madrid? Would anyone like him here? Kagawa and Sahin must have developed an understanding on the pitch surely?
