Manchester City are ready to pay £30m to sign Southampton defender Luke Shaw, 18. The fee would be a world record for a full-back, beating the £29.5m Barcelona paid Sevilla to sign Dani Alves in 2008.

£30 million seems a bit excessive...

It's a lot of money but if he does become as good as we're all hoping he could then it's not that bad. It's a gamble no doubt, but would you pay £3 million at the start of each season for Ashley Cole? I would and that's very basically what you're talking about here.

Having said that, I'm convinced the story is bullshit and I think we've got a couple of advantages. Firstly, he's a Chelsea supporter and a very vocal one at that. I'm not naive enough to think that money isn't an issue in the modern game, but this guy loves this club and we need a left-back. But I think we could also put together a comparable package for him and if that included Bertrand then that might be a better move for Southampton as well. They get a young, English left-back with the type of experience they're looking towards for their own young players.

If City are so desperate to get him for £30m then just let them have him. Don't get me wrong he's an amazing prospect and already a class PL player, but he just isn't worth 30m that's just absurd.

Yeah, because Man City need more left-backs. Utter cunts.

Well for starters, he's English and HG and think the City squad is lacking in that. And they probably want a long term replacement for Clichy and Kolarov..

If that's true, we should bid for Coentrao
