Sir Alex Ferguson: 'Shinji Kagawa is hitting top form'

Ferguson: 'Kagawa is hitting top form'

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson feels that Shinji Kagawa is producing his best football since arriving at the club last summer.

Kagawa joined the Red Devils in a £12m deal from Borussia Dortmund and has enjoyed an excellent debut campaign in the Premier League, despite suffering a knee injury which kept him out of action for two months.

Ferguson told Sky Sports News: "He's doing very well for us now. He has fantastic composure on the ball and his decision-making is good.

"He seems to always pick the more sensible pass and for the first goal at West Ham he had the composure to take the player on in a tight area and roll the ball to Antonio Valencia for a tap-in."

Kagawa has made 23 appearances this season in all competitions for United, scoring five goals.
