Kagawa

[ginger18legend]

New big name signing on its way? I don't see anyone already in our squad worthy of no.7. Then again, it was last seen on Owen's back.

I just hope, and sorry for being cynical here, that he's not considering United as a stepping stone to a "bigger team", i.e. Real or Barca.

He'll pobably get #26 or 29. Perhpas give Wazza 7 and Kagawa 10? I know most fans wouldn't ever want to see Rooney in the #7 shirt though, haha.

I think is Ando leaves,Rooney should be given number 8 for Nostalgic purposes

I like what you're saying.
Maybe it'll take his performance levels back to the Rooney 8 era as well.

[IsaacMUFC]

I agree then,Kagawa as 10

This says that Kagawa rejected the #7 shirt.

YES! Just to recreate the goal in the last minutes against AC Milan. Favourite United goal ever, pretty much.

Maybe for you,The overhead kick against City for me was his best,Simply because of the looks on the City players and fans.

[Bestie]

Didn't say best, I said my favourite!

[IsaacMUFC]

Ok fair enough,as i said though my favourite bit of the goal was the faces

No Jay. Even his coach at Dortmund said they couldn't stand in the way of this move as it was his dream since he was a kid. The Premier League is the biggest in Japan by a mile apparently.

Good to know, let's hope he's here for the long haul!

(My original statement was motivated by a fear that he declined #7 as he's not considering being here for such an extended period)

Sorry has Valencia not done enough for you to warrant the number 7?
