ed its the Seychelles man here. I couldn't help but notice that your a kagawa fan. how do u c the future panning out for him here at old trafford.
secondly wher the hell is nani. he seems to be the forgotten men. with all his versatility why couldn't the manager find a new role for him instead of sticking him on the wings. wasn't moyes who recently gave him a new contract if am not mistaken?

{Ed004's Note - Firstly I think Kagawa will be sold unfortunately. I think he is a fantastic player who was never given a chance and think he's been treated horribly. Secondly Nani is injured though should be back in within the month. Id like to see a game were Mata, Kagawa and Nani line up behind either Rooney or RVP}

I too envisage Kagawa leaving, and I too would like to see Mata, Kagawa and Nani start, they apart from Januzaj, are our most technically gifted players. I still maintain that Nani should have a future, when he is confident he is unstoppable like in 2008. He is by far and away, along with Januzaj, our most effective player from the right hand side. Have him on the right, Mata left feeding Rooney and RVP and things would pick up. Then options of Kagawa and Januzaj to rotate with. He's a better option than Young, Valencia or signing a mediocre winger which I fear we may do.

If rooney had been sold and there were two decent centre mid we might have seen the best of kagawa what a shame moyes has tretted him so shabily its beyond compehenshion him and mata love to see that let's hope before end off season don't think so though same boring 4 4 2

I agree with the ed he's been treated horribly. But I think if moyes gets in the midfield he wants and changes the teams style he will be a useful player. Also commercially he's very valuable. I'm hoping he doesn't leave as there's half a dozen that should be out the door ahead of him.

And Nani should be second of those out the door, useless player.

Fresh that was 6 years ago you can't say nani has had no confidence for 6 years!

I would to see Mata and kagawa in the same team, both on the same wavelength.

Nani has been out of favour with SAF and we have tried to sell him every year since. That's not something that will give you much belief if you're club is trying to sell you.

LOL give Nani another chance we sure Ben isn't Percy?

Nani is rubbish he's always been crap and always will be


7.) 17 Feb 2014
The worst feeeling u will get fresh is not that your club wants to sell u but that no clubs wants to buy u.
i love nani. I why think he never got fa chance to be himself. he was always being shaped and compared to the next ronaldo.

Fresh and the reason they've been trying to sell him?

He isn't good enough. His decision making is poor, he loses possession far too much and his crossing for a winger is woeful. My gran could take a corner that clears the first man and she's 98 in four months.

It also says something that in 3-4 years on the market only Zenit and Galatasaray have bothered to bid.

The new contract was to protect his value rather than him doing one a free but he needs to be second out the door this year behind fellow flop Anderson.

Sadly whilst we continue to play both rvp and Rooney we will not see the best of Kagawa and potentially mata too. Playing kags on the wing and expecting him to be like Valencia is not his style and until we play one up top (rvp/rooney) with three behind (kagawa/mata/januzaj)then we will not see his true ability.personally of the front men I would pick Rooney first purely down to him being better at chasing down opponents as we are obviously try to close down opponents quickly(although ageing limbs in our squad is making this difficult). I hope Kagawa stays and we change styles but fear this may not happen.

Nani is one of the most naturally gifted players in the league, but that does not make him a great player. His inconsistency is always going to get the better of him.

Kagawa is in a similar situation. The difference is Kagawa never got a fair shot in his best position. And even when he did, playing with the likes of Valencia and Young hugging the touchline, and Carrick and Cleverley playing too deep, he never had anyone to link up with, and I for one would be very, very disappointed if he was to be moved on without trying him in a system that suits his strengths. He has poven himself to be a consistent, very productive player at Dortmund and deserves more chances.

Ed04.

see now that is what I would like to see. and then maybe next season

isco/reus on the left of the 3 mata to the right and kags in the middle.

remember moyes at half time changing jan and kags and watching kags as he went from 45 mins of in and out to 45 mins of being the focal point and helping us score 2 in that 45 and finally thinking moyes had that inspirational moment that would transform our season.

sadly it only lasted 45mins and kags was on the bench the following week and moyes reverted back to his normal boring self.

Nani? Just No.

I think at times as a club we can be too loyal. I applaud what we've done for Fletcher standing by him when other clubs would have ruthlessly ditched him.

But the flip side of that is you get a situation like Evra. I remember Sydney and others saying 4 years ago Evra was becoming a problem. Yet nothing was done and the decline has been shocking. Surely in 4 years we could have replaced him and found better back up than Buttner.

And so it is with Nani and Anderson. These two along with Hargreaves were supposed to be replacements for Keane, Scholes and Giggs but all failed for differing reasons. Hargreaves through chronic injuries, Anderson through a combination of poor self discipline and mismanaged development (he would have been great as old Scholes of 99 but Fergie tried to turn him into Scholes of 2005) and Nani just didn't develop as expected.

Both of them should have gone two years. People keep going give them one more chance. Why? Someone like Mourinho (and i'm not a Jose fan) would have got rid straight away.

Everyone seems to forget that Nani is very high up on the list of assists on the last 6 years, much higher up than many preferred names. He gets bad press but is so much better than Young and Valencia.

Carvalho is apparently a great admirer of Nani. If Moyes is as interested in him as has been reported, then it would be difficult to let Nani go.
