    Like Shaw has rejected a move to Everton. United have agreed personal terms with Alex Sandro but won't pay the £65m Juve want so looks like he may go to PSG instead.

    If we end up with another season of fecking Ashley Young as first choice left back...

    It's from Duncan Castles who's been pretty good for us this summer (broke the Dalot story before anyone else for example).

    Shaw probably needs to step down in order to rejuvenate his career. Man Utd seems too much for him. You need to be better going forward for those types of teams.

    He was good going forward until the horrid thing happened to him.

    I mean Mourinho, not the injury.

    Luke Shaw is a write-off. He'll have a good pre-season, look good going forward, and then everyone will claim vindication whilst ignoring the ball-watching and cowardice that are actually the reasons the coaches hate him.

    Who else to man utd has a left back? Ashley Young and is that guy from Porto also a left back? If so, I can understand why man utd are trying to move him on. Young was doing step-overs and left foot crosses at the world cup. Mans confidence is sky high. Give me a five-year deal on that play alone.

    If we sell Hazard (even for £150m+) and don't replace him with Bale or someone equally dynamic, we will come about 8th-10th this year, and even that will entirely be down to Kanté.

    Dalot filled in at left-back for Porto due to injuries but he's a right-back. We need a new one, there's no way we challenge for the title with Ashley Young.

    Is it me or are there just not as many left footed players around as there used to be? It was very noticeable during England's run in the World Cup that every single outfield player was right footed until they brought Rose on.

    They need to replace Antonio Valencia more than they do Ashley Young, who has at least got some form of delivery to his game. Valencia carries all the threat of those fake rabbits they run around greyhound tracks, and his defending was slipping towards the back end of the season.

    Dalot is meant to be something special so I'd rather we made do with Valencia on the right whilst we phased him in.

    We need a left-footer at left-back otherwise three of our four wide players want to cut in and it doesn't work.

    Rotating Young and Big Fat Luke Shaw (basically split between top and bottom half opposition) wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if the alternative is spending seventy million quid on a left-back at the expense of elsewhere.

    The only positions I REALLY think we need now are a left-back and a right winger.

    If we got a really class player in both those positions I think we have a very good side.

    Edit: is Kieran Tierney as good as he's made out to be?

    In Japan league, its the complete opposite. Everyone is left-footed from the few games ive watched. Someone claimed it was because of Hiroshima.

    From my understanding he wants to move to Europe asap. The A-League is not a place for him anymore. I have heard that the City Group want him on the books at Manchester City and they will obviously put him out on loan.

    The "problem left side" has been an issue since I was a kid. We had Trevor Sinclair don it for one world cup, but even he was right footed. Who else have we had in the last 20 years that was left footed and actually any good?

    Ashley Cole? Is that it?

    If Chelsea get Higuain in it sums up how that clubs fallen. From Didier Drogba/Diego Costa to the biggest bottler in the world in 3 moves.

    You would be mad to buy Higuain now. He is clearly on the decline. WHats the deal with Morata, he can't be that bad?

    Courtois off to Madrid with Chelsea trying to get Alisson to replace him. Liverpool also after Alisson still though.

    Golovin to Chelsea also.

    Barkley was injured for large parts of the season. Im sure he plays a part this year. If he cant get in the team over Fabregas at this point, he needs to jump off a bridge.

    No wonder I was confused the other day when I saw Lucas Hernandez plays for Atletico when I was sure he started at Real on FM. He's got a brother called Theo at Real who also plays left back and they look like twins.

    There's a load of reports today saying Real aren't going to make any 'Galactico' signings as they would all be too expensive and break their wage structure. Dunno if they are reliable though.

    The Alisson rumours coming back with a vengeance are more than a bit worrying. Hopefully Chelsea take the hit.

    He’s a downgrade for Chelsea but an upgrade on Karius. Courtois was never staying considering he’s about to be out of contract and his kids are still in Spain.

    €35m agreed for Courtois. Thought they’d get more with that mad bitch Chelsea have in charge.
