    Well after LFC trying it last season after spending £100mil it`s only fair that we get to have a go.

    Sounds like nothing more than a media story to be honest, it's was no secret that Fergie has been a big admirer of Kagawa for quite a while, and having watched a lot of him since he joined Dortmund I find it hard to believe scouting reports would of only been "luke warm" as he, along with Gotze, has always been impressive.

    he he coming from a Utd bandwagon jumper that doesn't take into consideration that your manager has had years to bring good youngsters through the ranks from youth to the first team and therefore lessen the need to spend.<doh>

    Just to play Devils Advocate....

    Liverpool bought **** British players. Ones they had to buy for the squad quota (at least I hope so).

    Thanks to Uniteds Academy (and snapping up quality looking 18 year olds) we have an abundance of young homegrown players and our money can be invested better elsewhere.

    Irwin excited by Kagawa deal
    Denis Irwin has seen enough of prospective new signing Shinji Kagawa to be convinced that he&#8217;s &#8220;just what United need&#8221;.

    Reds legends Irwin has watched Kagawa in action for Borussia Dortmund and believes it won&#8217;t take long for the Japanese midfielder to become a crowd favourite at Old Trafford.

    Irwin told ManUtd.com: "He&#8217;s the type of player that most United fans felt we needed, an attacking, all-action player.

    "I saw him playing a couple of matches for Borussia Dortmund and he seemed a very talented player, lively with great technique. I know he was highly rated in Germany.

    "I think he&#8217;ll be a great signing and fans should be excited by the prospect of him playing for us because he can run with the ball, create chances and score goals. He&#8217;s just what we need."

    Kagawa quickly adapted to German football after moving to Borussia from Japan and Irwin expects him to do the same in England.

    "Physically it could be tougher than Germany but the Bundesliga can be quite tough, and other smaller players have shown that size doesn&#8217;t prevent you being a success in the Premier League," the ex-defender said.

    "The manager will have done his homework on him &#8211; he went out to see him in the German Cup final when Dortmund beat Munich 5-2, in which he scored.

    "So Sir Alex will have assessed him and decided he&#8217;s got what it takes to be a Manchester United player."

    Kagawa, who will seal his move to Old Trafford if he passes a medical and obtains a work permit, often plays on the left wing for his country but is most at home in midfield, playing &#8216;in the hole&#8217;.

    "I know he can play on the wing but I&#8217;ve only ever seen him play through the middle, behind the front man," Irwin added. "In that position he looks a talented player who can create chances for others but also scores goals.

    "His record at Dortmund was impressive and they won two leagues in a row, the Double last season, so he must have been doing something right."
