If Shaw goes to the rags I would percieve that as a backward step. At Southampton he is in a young side with a young manager that plays good football. Goes to the rags he is in ageing squad playing shit football with shit players...

Ready to spend a fortune though, Shaw is the first of 5 or 6. And the lunatic Van Gaal will get more out of a few players like Mata and Van Persie.

FFP in effect here, Southampton selling to United (and Lallana to Liverpool) after building a tidy team that could have gone places. If Cortese was still around, though, it might be different.

At least Reus is staying at BVB, United really wanted him.
FFP is just a joke. Makes no sense. I agree investors should have to leave some capital behind as a guarantee to stop the Portsmouth situation, but to hold back the likes of CIty and PSG is madness.

Anyway Reus, Muller and Kroos all rejecting United is probably due to them not making the CL. Reus is very loyal and might have stayed, but he is motivated by trophies not money. Had United made top 4 I would have been very worried they would be able to get those guys.

If Chlesea don't go for Shaw then I guess he will go to United. He is a very talented player, but not worth the 27 million that United have offered.

Wow, Southampton showing some steel if true.

Well if the opening bid is £27mil, and it's fairly well known that manure will have a pretty substantial transfer kitty, Southampton can probably push up the price to the mid 30's.
 
They have multiple assets and no need to sell, they can pull a Porto here and absolutely bleed everyone if they want
 
Probably hoping for a bidding war to happen. I Hope city bid 35 mill to drive the price up.

The Rags 200m won't go far at that rate.
