Luke fucking Shaw for more than Hazard, Oscar, Fabregas, Diego Costa...

Unbelievable. Unreal. Desperate from United.

Yeah, ridiculous. He's good, but compared to all these guys, such a price for a teenager is beyond silly and will put a lot of pressure on him.

He'll be on 75k pw according to Jake Cohen

If Manchester United signs Luke Shaw for £34m + a 5-year deal at £75k pw, he'll cost £10.7m py on FFP books. Drop in the bucket for #mufc

Drop in the bucket indeed. Transfer fee was never the issue, it was always the wages that were 'supposed' to be the problem.

Great deal for United, we're cowards, let's put this into perspective..

Jon Obi Mikel - 75,000

Luke Shaw - 75,000

Cowards, Term? Come on.

We could get Ricardo Rodriguez for just over half of that who's MUCH better than Shaw is currently.

Lifes too short for German football, so I can't dissect Rodriguez for you (a player we've never been linked with). I'd much rather we signed the second best natural left back in the country, and maintain the english core.

When the rumours first started the wages were aggrandised, my bets on 75k, fair play to United if so.

In what world we living? Silly MU paying 34 mln for a teenager and offering 100k wage its just so stupid. And then people start asking why english players so overrated. :doh:

This is why England NT suffer. The top teams in the league can't afford top english players in their team because of the over rating and inflated prices of the players.

40M ? Nearly as good a deal as we got from PSG for Luiz.

Sure Shaw is a good young player but 40M is laughable. Moreno/Rodriguez are both better and would cost 15-20m max.

Who are the idiots doing the transfer side of stuff at United since Fergie left?

- Nani and Valencia got new contracts on big wages

- Rooney got a massive contract worth 300k p/w

- Fellaini for 27M

- Mata for 37M (I'd have paid that tbh)

- now Shaw for 40M

Looked so far out of his depth last night. Yes, the potential is there, but my lord his positional discipline is atrocious at times. He has a lot to learn. He might be a talented player but is he worth £40 million? Maybe if he stays at United for ten years, it'll have been a good investment. But it seems like another panic buy by them. I like Luke and think he'll be brilliant. I think he is at least as good as Bertrand is, but we're far better off going for someone with experience, like Luis.

United have handled this appallingly. They dragged it out, let their fans get excited about signing him (because they can't really sign any other marquee name), watched teams like us get our business done quickly and quietly and that allowed Southampton to ratchet up the price at the last minute.

If those figures are correct then they're well and truly fleeced. The pressure on him would be incredible.
