Buttner to Dinamo Moscow?

Maybe he just counted up all his votes in the MOTM threads for all his games? 14 sounds about right in that case.
 
I'm going for trials at United. If Buttner got 14 motm awards and with the likes of Palacios, Fred starting at the World Cup I have a good chance of making it as a top flight footballer.
 
He wasn't that bad. Not United material, but he's decent. Good luck to him, we will always remember that amazing debut and BM performance.
 
He's not as bad as people have said, still think he's good enough to be Evra's backup but if we're getting Shaw then we have no need for him. Cleverley is going to have to find another twin

Keeping a player against his will is pretty dangerous. Bigger clubs have caved in because of that including us.

Remember when we tried to sign bale in 2007, Southampton never got back To us, and he ended up at spurs. So it is either united were not convincing Southampton enough, or united were not that interested.

What Southampton are thinking, they either want all the cash in one payment, or? they are thinking, if united jumped right in the deep end with that 30 million bid, let's see how much milk is left in this cow
 
Shinji will be upset.

On Buttner, he's simply not good enough. Hope he does well but he has to go.
 
Dinamo Moscow is his level really. Logical move for all sides. We need to start offloading the deadwood and selling Buttner is a good start.

£30 million for a fullback is never a bargain. He's never going to directly be responsible for our success like a number 9 would for example. Scoring goals at the top level is considered the hardest thing, hence its those players who go for record fees while fullbacks are usually signed for decent fees.

£30 million for a fullback is the absolute most that most teams will even consider. Thats what Alves went for and he's more than just a fullback, he has the end product of a winger.

Shaw could be worth £25-30 million, but it'll obviously never be a bargain. Thats paying a premium for an outstanding young talent



I quoted oneunited, not sure what you did there

It is hard to find a fullback who can defend and attack just has good, and defences do win you league titles. It also helps he is used to the premier league, so already you may have a guarantee, even if it is 30 million for a 18 year old left back, Southampton know we desperately need a left back with evra's current age

Haven't they got previous for this? Wasn't money the issue with Shearer's proposed move to us in that Blackburn were prepared to pay over the odds at the time.

I doubt we bidded 30m for bale
 
Inevitable. Hopefully the start of a bit of an exodus, but this departure was always a given due to Evra's contract extension and with Shaw's signature only a matter of time.
 
I think we will sign Shaw and with Evra signing a new deal, I think it is a good move for Buttner to move on. Good luck to him in the future.
 
Deal looks done, Dynamo offers around 35-40k a week in salary, although that would be a considerably better income in Russia due to a a much lower income tax, and a 3-year deal. Dynamo's sporting director said they are extremely interested in player. They do have a serious problem on the LB, basically there been many players who played there their jack of all trades Wilshere, their versatile CB Granat. And their main LB Lomic is even worse.
Oddly the fee is not reported, but given Dynamo is loaded we can expect a full return on 4.5M investment.
 
To be expected. He was bought as back up, given quite a few chances and didn't really take any of them.

The way his agent mentioned Luke Shaw specifically though makes me think the deal is done.
