Some have said this looks to be a done deal, but other than SSN saying we've made a bid, has there been anything else from a solid and reliable source in the meantime? Have Southampton actually accepted the bid?
Agreed, hes actually gone backwards in the past few years. I doubt hell be her much longer
So I expect Shaw to be our first signing of the summer, do not feck it up Woodward!
Maybe I am over reacting and United will sit down with him this season or the next to give him a better contract. He is a huge talent and we would want him to be happy with us.
I remember reading (maybe here) that Shaw is a chelsea fan, and they were interested in signing him?
Assuming we signed Shaw who will we make a bid next?
This may well be the case but what are you basing it on?
That's largely dependant on Van Gaal. Shaw was simply a perfect fit and with not many great LBs being available, I think he is quite happy with that transfer too.
I'd say Strootman has a very good chance to be a summer target now.
You could look back on hundreds of threads like that on here, not just this one. It's always the same.
Christ knows. We've been linked with so many players at this stage it's hard to figure out who we're actually interested in. Carvahlo, Kroos, Reus, Fabregas, Hummels, Cavani etc.
Carvahlo is the only one of that group who seems likely to me yet our interested seems to have dipped with Moyes' departure.
Hummels IMO. We will go for the big targets after the World cup. Hummels is pretty big too but out of the big names we are linked to he is the easiest target. Kroos, Fabregas, Reus etc can wait until the world cup. Maybe an offer for Carvalho is imagineable if LvG wants him.
I'm already laughing now
So happy we secured one of the top young leftbacks in the world. His attacking abilities suit our style perfectly.
Hold your horses, lets get official confirmation first.I'm already laughing now

Probably the amount of noise about Shaw to United since January?
That's what I would base it off, we apparently bid for him in January, the offer was set to be re-visited after the season had finished, because they didn't want him to go mid-season, now a bid has been made according to every journo and paper, and it sounds like a matter of time (like the Mata transfer).

Fair enough, but all the signs look good. We are quietly doing business behind the scenes and giving away nothing to the media, yet the press are the ones circulating the stories around. Just the way we used to do things.
They do, but then I think of all the bad muppet moments and shudder.
Have we even been linked with him seriously anywhere? I'd hope if we are going to go for Carvalho we'd do it before the world cup before other suiters become interested. Don't think we Hummels will go anywhere either, and I don't see Dortmund letting any other stars go this summer after Lewandowski goes to Bayern.
I'm 97% sure that he's ours. There's been too many reports from too many reliable sources to think otherwise. It's been going on for a long time now, so I don't expect it to drag on for much longer.
There were rumours he is on the top of LvG's list of targets and i can see that. He's good in the air and can play the ball out of the defence, he's an LvG type of defender. I can see Dortmund selling him and getting a promising german CB or two.
Quite a few papers mentioned it at the same time including the Telegraph and Times if memory serves, but they mentioned Muller as well which has zero chance.
Does anybody get the feeling that with van gaal inevitable, he watched the game on Sunday and gave the go ahead after watching his performance?
It wasn't a decision based on one match.
jesus can we just sign the januzaj twatting little git? And while you are at it get Clyne as well
You twat
I'll forgive you if he comes though
What you saying now dicks? huh? huh?
I hope QPR lose on penalties.
me too.
I find it odd that I said that. I think I was joking from the assertion a transfer muppet must have made.
I thought you were a fan of the Rs? Sorry, that's a worse insult that I intended!
I was no muppett, my sources were legitimate.
I will now reveal my source.
Luke Shaws Dad's taxi driver.....
Leroy the Red ...... QPR fan? You're not the sharpest are you?
I'm confusing you with another United fan who also likes QPR (as that's his local side).
Apologies to that guy for confusing him with a rude ITK.

Southampton have rejected our first bid for Shaw of 27m. Article goes on to say we value him at around 30m.

QPR are my local side funnily enough. As a Chelsea fan you should always be rudely spoken to on here. It's only fair.
Oh God, I want this transfer window over already.
We go again. £17m!
If that's true, I'm surprised - I thought £27m was an excellent offer, more than I was expecting given he's largely potential.
You'd be hoping for the finished article for a left-back over £30m.
Woody with probably offer £37M next...
After finding out Shaw has a £33M release clause of course.

The first bid was always going to be rejected. Southampton have to show some resilience, the fee being thrown around for months is £30m, when we go back with that it will be accepted.
