She certainly seems to love the Manchester United midfielder a lot more than David Moyes anyway.

Although David Moyes doesn’t yet seem entirely convinced about Shinji Kagawa (he has been playing him more often of late, however), there is no doubt of his massive appeal beyond Old Trafford, particularly at former club Borussia Dortmund and in his homeland.

So beloved is he at home in Japan, in fact, that a video of a baby girl repeatedly saying his surname after hearing her mother say his first name proved a massive hit on a Japanese television show recently and isn’t it just the cutest thing you’ve ever seen? Awwwwww.

It’s certainly a lot cuter and a lot less dangerous than some of the content you might have seen on Japanese television over the years…
