Just tell him to sit in front of the back four and keep it simple at all times and play someone beside him like Cleverley beside him. Having seen Kagawa handle the helter skelter of a tough away game at Everton so well I'm convinced that at some stage of the season Fergie will give him a game or two in a deeper role in midfield. He could do it with his eyes closed I think. Delicious first touch, really comfortable on the ball, lovely passing range, always looking around him even before the ball gets to him, able to dribble to get himself out of tight situations. A Scholes or Modric-esque rebirth as a deeper lying creator wouldn't surprise me at some stage of his Utd career. I think he's the best signing we've made since we got Evra ajd Vidic in for half nothing a few years back. Class act.

Wins everything in the air and is calm and composed on the ball but can make that killer pass if needs be. We all know that he can be a little erratic but then who isn't. All the great midfielders of the last few years had that side to them, Keane, Gattuso and so on. He certainly has the ability to play there. I think it's just a question of whether Fergie can see that. DDG Rafael - Rio - Vidic - Evra Carrick - Bebe Kagawa Nani - Rooney - RVP A formation like the one above would be brilliant, and it'd save us needlessly spending £30 million on another player who may not be suited to the English game or who we don't really know anything about. Bebe knows the English game and we know Bebe. It's time to give him his chance Fergie.

I love to see them lose,they love to see us lose. It's the way it's always been and should always be. I watched the Pool v Brom game in my sitting room with 1 United fan and 3 Liverpool fans,few beers and had great craic. We have group text messages that are just a constant stream of abuse towards both teams. That rivalry is essential to both teams in my opinion. It would be a sad day if they plummeted to complete and utter irrelevance. I can't wait for the game next month.
