3. He Can Score Goals
As well as being able to create chances for strikers and onrushing wingers, Kagawa has also proven he can score goals as well, adding another reason why he can be United's main force in attack. During the 2011/12 season he managed 17 goals in all competitions as well as providing a further 14 for his teammates. He finished in the top ten scorers in the league that season and came second at the club behind Lewandowski, as Dortmund ran away with the Bundesliga. It is talents such as this that prompted Ferguson to spend
£17million on him in the summer of 2012. What has been lost since then and particularly since Moyes took over, is that his talents have not been recognised, and he has fallen further down the pecking order at the club. If he is given a proper shot at the first first team, he can show what he has to offer, albeit with the right players behind him, and he can start scoring and creating the goals that put him into the Bundesliga Team of the Season two years in a row. Playing with a like minded striker will help him out, with someone like Wayne Rooney able to play both as a goalscorer and a goal provider, and clever interplay between the two will benefit the club for years to come, particularly with Rooney showing good form this season.
