Luke shaw

If I was shaw I wouldn't move to us ur record on young players, especially English is terrible right now. I would move to either united or Liverpool where I would have a better chance of playing

I've noticed something... on one hand you complain about our lack of English players. Then when we're linked with one, you say he shouldn't come here. So what do you want exactly?

It's obvious that if Shaw did come here, it'd be at the expense of Clichy or Kolarov, so he'd play at least 30 games a season. Clichy and Kolarov have exactly 25 appearances each for City so far this season. Shaw has made 30 appearances for Southampton, just 5 more than our rotated left-backs, because his club play less games (earlier cup eliminations + no Europe).

tl;dr: Shaw would play lots of games here and probably become our #1 left-back before too long. It'd be a good move for him and for the club, because unlike too many of our English signings like Sinclair (who can't even get on West Brom's bench most weeks), he has a level of talent beyond most young English players.

Tbh I'm looking at it more from a national team point of view and for the player the self. Having seen us buy English players like Barry, Milner, lescott and seen them not played even when good enough especially Milner. I don't want to see them come here unless they are guaranteed a good number of games, not just the odd cup game or ten minutes at the end like Milner. I just thnk it would be a shame for someone lie say Barkley to come here and go from a regular starter to barely playing.


Shaw could start, but if I was him I'd rather move to somewhere like Liverpool where I know the manager has faith in young players, especially British players. One player I still can't believe we god rid of was trippier, he is ripping up the championship now. I would have move Richards to right back maybe and put him t rb

Im pretty sure if we were signing Luke Shaw for over 20 million squids he would be our starting left back

I'd hardly say barry, milner and lescott haven't played...

Unfortunately we're not in the frame for his signature at the moment.

Believe it or not the Rags are in pole position, they're putting all their eggs in one basket with a huge offer that eclipses Chelsea.

I could well believe that as the rags are a bit desperate, they won't have Champions League and so will have to offer huge wages and pay big prices. The interesting thing will be whether they will be able to complete the deals if Chelsea get close to their offer. Agents may well use their interest to get better deals from preferred options.

If we're not after him we're idiots. Kolarov lacks the pace and defensive ability and Clichy has the pace but has gone backwards dramatically this season. Pellegrini likes to use the full backs and this kid is brilliant and can also take great free kicks as well.

I bet we go for the kid at Savilla Alberto Moreno Perez.

 

[sky tot]

I bet we go for the kid at Saville

Jimmy ??

Now then, now.then,now what we have here.

Since Pellegrini arrived:

1) We shipped out Barry to our detriment

2) Lescott plays 2nd fiddle to MDM as Vinnie's partnet - Mind boggling

3) It doesn't seem to matter how well Milner plays or how committed or how professional he is he gets limited opportunities - Astonishing at times

Richards & Rodwell will come good somewhere, personally think some of the stick they've receibed is OTT, both have suffered big time with injuries .....
