The seasoned manager revealed that he was pleased with the Japanese midfielder’s performance, who netted the only goal against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Shanghai-Shenhua-c40497 last night.
A large crowed awaited the Red Devils in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786, where they encountered United on many occasions.
However none of them were able to inspire their side to victory, as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Shinji-Kagawa-c33364 gathered all the accolades after an eye-catching display.
The former Borussia Dortmund man utilized his attacking abilities to great effect and was involved in all the major attacks of the team. His goal was brilliantly taken as well, as he got onto Bebe’s sublime pass and volleyed it into the net with apparent
ease.
Having been signed as a cure to United’s midfield problems, Kagawa put in a great shift with attacking verve and vision for everyone to see. So it was quite unsurprising that Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson was relishing the prospect of him playing against the likes of
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 and Manchester City in the Premier League.
"One of the features of our game is that counter-attack is important. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Antonio-Valencia-c6345 is very good with that and Kagawa will add to it. His awareness of receiving the ball and his speed of turning defenders is going to be an asset for us. Kagawa was involved
in most of the possession tonight. He was Man of the Match and deserved it. He took his goal well, although it took a deflection, but he has settled in well and is going to be a very good player for us."
The coach also revealed that some of the team’s key personnel were missing due to their exertions in the European Championships, but they will be back in the line-up for the next game.
"The players who start training on Thursday will certainly be involved in the games in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sweden-c3015 and Hannover," he revealed.
United next take on Valerenga in Oslo on the 5th of August, before travelling to Sweden for the hugely anticipated clash against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 in Gothenburg.
