Rumoured Luke Shaw

[ChelseaFanUK 1,014]

I'm sorry but the Mirror isn't a credible source to warrant locking a thread. Let's wait for SKY Sports News or BBC to confirm then we batten down the hatches, until then the show must go on.

It's only because the one who reported it was David McDonnell and he is pretty spot on with Utd

Like I said, lets wait and see before we go closing threads up based only on rumors and reports.

Dislike it when people suddenly say we should close threads upon the smallest of rumours or news regarding a transfer etc. It's rather annoying. Should only be done when it's officially confirmed by the clubs involved, reliable sites (e.g. Sky Sports, Guardian, BBC) etc.

Daily mail running an "exclusive" saying its basically done and will be announced before the world cup.Nothing new really though, they're probably just saying it to claim they were first with it when it's finally confirmed.

It seems cast iron he is off to Utd.

Okay let's get Rodriguez then. He's only 21 and already very complete left back.

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

MU offered £27m for him, seems like a done deal unless we jump in and offer 28-30m. I think we should just leave it, that is way overpriced. Our defence is already the best among Europe who gives a crap about it especially with Zouma here now too. Maybe in a couple of years if needed we can sign someone like Ricardo Rodriguez or Danilo to play LB.

[The Chels 2,502]

The ideal scenario would be us bidding around £20m and Luke Shaw telling Southampton that he only wants to move here so they'd have to accept our bid or keep him. However it'd be highly unlikely that Southampton would accept such an offer, because in spite of their debts they can just sell Lallana instead. And you can't blame Shaw for not taking the risk — he'd get to play at one of (if not the) biggest clubs in the world, receive a very generous salary and essentially be a guaranteed starter. It can't harm to try though can it Roman!

Who?!

Ricardo Rodriguez! He plays for Switzerland! His price will go up after Brazil, just you watch!

[Sidzeret 2,257]

Actually a good thing that United are getting him during the earlier part of the window. We definitely don't want the bidding war to extend to the later stages and lose out on him. Now we have time to make our move for Ricardo Rodriguez.

Not as hyped as Shaw is but good player though. I reckon we could get him for about 18- 20m.

Get Vidal and Costa and we're set!

Shame we can't get a chelsea fan.

Cant believe some people are trying to justify the price tag. Yes he is young and yes he has talent but it doesnt mean he is guaranteed to be a great player. Also taking him to the world cup ahead of Cole is a big big mistake. If Baines gets injured, this kid is going to have a horrid time.

This is so sad.

Chelsea fan but too expensive i guess.
