Rumoured Luke Shaw

[Jase 43,479]

Shaw's cross that led to Fonte's yesterday was his first ever assist in the Premier League. That sure took awhile..

[magic weeds 446]

Just as fast as Jordi Alba. The kid makes nice forward runs. I'd take him in a heart beat

[Pizy 18,858]

Before fucking United swoop in and offer him the moon we need to get this kid. This month! Loan him back to Southampton until the summer if that's what it takes. Just get it done.

That's what £30m gets you nowadays

[King11Didier 916]

30m are just too much for him.What he have proved for this money?His price is too big only for that he is English.I prefer PvA and Bertrand for options next season that Shaw for 30m.Even 20m are too much for this kid,in my opinion.

Seeing him in a United shirt would probably upset me more than seeing Mata in it. He's a great young talent who is already one of the better left-backs in the league and the fact that he's English, a Chelsea fan and from a Chelsea stronghold just makes it seem inevitable that we'll get him.

Sometimes sentimental things like that are worth paying a little bit more just for the feeling it gives the fans.

To be honest A.Cole was never the best crosser, he did attempt (unlike now), but Shaw has a good cross on him, pace, power, height, the kid has everything.

Not true, he got one last season vs Chelsea, 2-2, Puncheon the scorer.

pardon me. There I was thinking only proven, world class fullbacks commanded record/exorbitant transfer fees in the past. I wonder how much players like Lahm, Alaba, marcelo et al would go for then £100m?. football has gone mental.

Can you do that? I don't think he can be loaned back to Southampton for the rest of the season. Some rule preventing it (Not sure)

Not sure. Could've sworn I've seen it happen before.

Did i say he's worth that much? he's 18 and already one of the better LBs in the league, in five years time i think he'll be one of the best LBs in Europe.

He's going to be sold for 20- 25 million, not 30 million.

Also Marcelo world class.. Great going forward, but such a poor defender... Actually that pretty much sums up PVA.

How dare you slate Van Aanholt....he had a good game for us about 4 years ago....which we lost...and conceded 4 goals in...at home. :ph34r2:

I actually think you're right about the fee being closer to £20 million and probably £5 million of that is based on him being English. If you look at the rumours surrounding someone like Rodriguez then he's valued at between £15-20 million which isn't much different from Shaw without the 'English tax'. Shaw has homegrown benefits though and has played 50 games in the Premier League whilst also being 3 years younger.

1 good cross and a wankfest ensues!

I'd love to have him here as well, but I think many people here are overrating his crossing ability. It's his first assist in the PL as BM said, so I severely doubt it's THAT much better than Cole's as some people are claiming. He is very, very young though so he can easily become a lot more consistent with it and he's already better than Ash going forward.

It's pathetic isn't it?
