BenIsLegend 475 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Manchester United have made a £22.5m bid for Southampton’s teenage left-back Luke Shaw topping Chelsea's offer of £21m (According to the Mirror)My thoughts: Piss off United.

Korea 734 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Sure is a lot of money for a full back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

didierforever 7,349 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 very suprised that there is not much of "stories/rumors" flying out there about us signing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 There's gonna be a meltdown here if United get him instead of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,962 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 There's gonna be a meltdown here if United get him instead of us.And rightly so, in my opinion.We're in the same position United are. Aging LB who's past his best and will likely be gone in the summer. Couldn't be a more perfect buy for us. He's a Chelsea supporter, he's young, and he's English. Everything falls in line with the new philosophy of the club. Would be terrible if United get him instead of us. Especially if they miss out on top 4.

Pizy 18,962 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 He also expensive.....We just received nearly £40m. That should easily cover Salah and Shaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
didierforever 7,349 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 He also expensive.....he will be as expensive in the summer with probably more competition from other clubs as well. especially with the extra cash lying around from the mata and kdb deals, we should buying him now.

Korea 734 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 We just received nearly £40m. That should easily cover Salah and Shaw.so? Why would reinvest all that money into a lb?Unless your last name is alaba, the reported amount is ridiculous. Shaws has good physical attributes and dribbles well for a left back, but hes not really that great (yet)...Also, on the defensive side hes not really that good (not Walker-esque though). Granted, ive only seen a handful amount of games, but even the united fans say shaw value is inflated due to his nationality.. He could improve, but as of right now, are you willing to take that chance? Is mourinho really going to spend money on a raw player like that? Mourinho already sent lukaku out on loan..

Paying £22m or whatever it is for someone who could be with the club for 10 or more years sounds like a wise investment to me.Not really....Your thinking best case scenario....And this idea that shaw is the best full back in the EPL... Some could argue his mate on the other side is better....Shaw not even the best english full back.However, I do understand the whole shaw connection to chelsea/london etc.... Hopefully, we can find a way to get him cheaper than the reported amounts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zolayes 14,489 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 by that logic we should pay 35 million for a 16 yo or 50 miilion for a 13 yo ,, not fair that im 76 , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waterfall 893 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 by that logic we should pay 35 million for a 16 yo or 50 miilion for a 13 yo ,, not fair that im 76 ,That logic holds true if the 13 year old is already a solid PL leftback with rooms to grow like Shaw is.
