Japanese playmaker Shinji Kagawa has expressed frustration at being sidelined by new Manchester United manager David Moyes, after he helped his country beat Ghana 3-1 on Tuesday.
According to Sport24, twice the Bundesliga player of the year with Borussia Dortmund, Kagawa has played just seven minutes for English champions United this season, appearing as a substitute in the 2-0 Community Shield victory over Wigan on August 11.
Kagawa said that Moyes should be asked on why he is not in the side, adding that he was waiting for his chance in the Premier League and in the Champions League.
The 24-year-old was an instant hit at Old Trafford after being signed by Alex Ferguson in June last year, but he has cut a forlorn figure this season, left out of the squad altogether for United's 1-0 defeat at Liverpool before the international break, the report said.
