Transfer: Summer transfer rumours

[Jussi]

The Shaw situation frustrates me so much. He still has solid potential but Mourinho hates him and he can’t earn his way out of the doghouse.

He had that stretch earlier where he played somewhat regularly for about 6 or 7 games, but then had a bit of an off game and gets to see Ashley young starting ahead of him repeatedly.

It's frustrating to see Shaw not being any kind of offensive threat now compared to what he was pre-injury. It's also not Ashley Young's fault that he's a bigger offensive threat that also gets on the score sheet via goals and assists and become inreasingly better at defending against all expectations. If Shaw can't perform at that level then what can you do? I personally would like to see if he could reach that level again at United but...

 

[Live in the Now]

For 40 million.... this after his agent said there's a deal with inter. Like I said earlier regarding Argentina transfer if he hasn't played his first game with the team then the deal isn't complete.

Hopefully he goes to Dortmund, but I'd be shocked by an Argentine deciding to go to Germany instead of Italy. Need one of these teams to get players to give Bayern a bigger challenge.

Do remember that Shaw has pretty much been criticized in different ways by every manager he has had since becoming a professional. Poch, LVG, Hodgson and now Mourinho. I'd give Mou the benefit of the doubt.

 

[Live in the Now]

I think Mourinho's right about this one. Honestly Shaw is fat for a footballer and this has been the case for a long time now.

That being said obviously Mourinho is cracking up as always happens and I don't expect this to get better.

Yeah, but "football heritage" and "investments from the past."

 

[hatterson]

I wasn’t trying to say that Shaw was being screwed over, just that it’s frustrating to watch becuase he can’t get out of the dog house and is the only one with potential to be really dangerous at that spot.

Young is doing well, but should be no more than a rotation option for a club like United.

 

[Chimaera]

Keita is a stud. Going to be fun.

Again, it's up to Shaw to take that place by outplaying Young.

It might still be better than Inter but Dortmund is a mess right now. So, not sure.

If he were good enough to actually make a difference in the title race, Dortmund would probably have a dysfunctional season after selling their 3 best players in one summer and he'd force his way out just 12 months in, anyway.

 

[Gecklund]

Read a report saying United are willing to let 11 players go this summer. Zlatan and Carrick are already confirmed gone apparently. Shaw, Darmian, Blind, and Herrera are as good as gone too. The report also said they are willing to move Periera, Smalling, Mata, Martial, and Felliani.

The only players on that list I have a hard time seeing leave are Martial and Periera. The rest I could see leaving. Obviously I want Mata to stay but I doubt he will.

It’d be stupid to let go of Martial, Mata, and Pereira.

I think Mata is replaceable but I agree about Martial and Pereira. I would definitely hold onto Mata but I could see Mou selling Mata.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

What in the world happened to Herrera. He was one of my most highly regarded picks in the fantasy draft

Mourinho happened. Never gave him time and he got out of game shape.

 

[JeffreyLFC]

Could Pogba also be a surprise out?

 

[hatterson]

Mata I don't think is a huge loss. He's got talent obviously, but nothing they can't replace and he'll be 30 at the end of this season.

Pereira I think has potential to step in and play soon, so I wouldn't love seeing him gone.

Martial has a ton of talent and got a chance to show it the first half of this season, if we sell him for anything less than a truckload of cash I'll be pissed.

 

[hatterson]

Could Pogba also be a surprise out?

I can't see United selling him for less than we paid, and I can't see someone paying that for him given his form. So I'd bet heavily against him leaving.

 

[Burner Account]

Mourinho doesn't want Van Gaal's £40M worth of left backs? Oh well.

 

[Deficient Mode]

Pogba and Herrera wouldn't be the first talented central midfielders to suffer under Mourinho and boom when he leaves. Modric says hi.

 

[Bon Esprit]

Lautaro Martinez linked with BvB.

According to German paper focus he will go to Inter.

Mourinho happened. Never gave him time and he got out of game shape.

He got plenty of time last season and was the fans pick for player of the season. He's had injury woes this season. Performance shouldn't be an issue as United's midfield looked the best with him, Matic and Pogba. Though he did anger Mourinho by bringing over his friends to the training center which is apparently a no-go among the team.

Given the recent quotes of Alexis, how long before he abandon ships United?
