He'll start for Man Utd under a new manager with better players than he was playing with at Southampton and he'll be paid 5-10 times more than he's currently being paid. The system is broken but it doesn't mean players like Shaw should be martyrs, doing things the way die hard fans want things done. Change the system and things will happen naturally, but the forces in football right now make these moves inevitable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were always going to once they made the Champions League, and even if they hadn't they probably would have still spent big. That new owner has been backing them heavily.

I doubt he'd be happy with being a rotation player He would get 40+ games. They're going to play in the CL, there'll be plenty of matches to go around.

He's probably more consistent than both but I think both of those players have a higher ceiling in terms of their performances than Lallana Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Swift Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Lallana is better than both. He's genuinely two-footed, scores from long range, takes good set pieces and works his ass off wherever he plays. He's good enough to start for Chelsea and City, nevermind Liverpool.

nufc4eva Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 What, you can actually offer for players before transfer window opens in hope of having settled pre-season. Well I never, it will never catch on with our clueless cunts at the helm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jtm_92 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Southampton could sell shaw and lallana for easily 60 million plus, reinvest all the money and they could have a very good chance finishing in the top 5/6. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main worry with doing that is injuries and a lot of clubs will want to wait until they have a replacement lined up themselves. Obviously that last bit doesn't concern Mike.

Particularly if it's only Man Utd showing an interest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 At least he's likely to get a game at Man Utd, you'd think young English players would think twice about signing for Man City or Chelsea these days if they had any sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
