washsaint Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 incredible to think the lad is only 18. Best LB in the country and to sell him for 27million would be seriously underchanging us. Irreplaceable for us....more so than Adam
washsaint Posted 11 May, 2014 Author Posted 11 May, 2014 If he carries on developing at the same rate, he will easily be worth 80-100 million in a 2-3 years (based on the crazy transfer market right now). he is light years ahead of Bale at the same age
OldNick Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Bale was superb with us and Shaw likewise. A fullback would be easier to replace than the creativity AL gives us
SNSUN Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Disagree OP. Lallana is our most skilful, talented, goal scoring midfielder. Those aren't easy to find. Shaw is replaceable, not like for like but with someone good enough.
igsey Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Bale was superb with us and Shaw likewise. A fullback would be easier to replace than the creativity AL gives us He's so much more than just a full back though. He's more like a very good winger that happens to be a very good defender. Keep him at all costs unless he specifically asks to leave.

Keep him at all costs unless he specifically asks to leave. If the club want to sell to get funds in to increase our spending power losing Shaw is the least of the 2evils. Shaw is superb and in time his crossing and assists will improve
washsaint Posted 11 May, 2014 Author Posted 11 May, 2014 Disagree re Adam being harder to replace. We Have Garton And The Next Group Like Sims Coming through. We don't have the same luxury at lb and without wishing to be too controversial shaw is already world class and Adam is not......very good but not world class
CB Fry Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 If the club want to sell to get funds in to increase our spending power losing Shaw is the least of the 2evils. Shaw is superb and in time his crossing and assists will improve We don't want to sell to get funds. Where are you getting this nonsense from?
OldNick Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 We don't want to sell to get funds. Where are you getting this nonsense from?read it again and look at the first word
CB Fry Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 read it again and look at the first word It's a stupid premise. We don't. There is no if. And you were rambling about the same topic earlier - we won't play Lallana today to preserve our fire - sale pay day. Guess what? He played.

I didn't know you were in the boardroom and now the clubs strategy and financial position.Again you try and twist my post to try and make a point re AL.

And you are? Your suggestion that we are trying to actively sell these players is total speculation based on f uck all information. My opinion is based on what the club officials have said in more than one occasion in more than one place. Believe or don't believe it but don't belittle my opinion - your is based on nothing except baseless paranoia.

As for selling LS or AL let's have a bet that the proceeds go to charity. Put your money where your mouth is.
Saint Charlie Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Shaw is a phenomenal player, showed it again today.

kpturner Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Agree with the OP (apart from the Lallana bit) plus I don't believe he actually wants to leave yet anyway.
CB Fry Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 if they leave Well I think at least one of them will leave, more than likely both. What's your bet?
angelman Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Shaw is a phenomenal player, showed it again today. Fantastic right foot.
Pastor Patrón Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Disagree OP. Lallana is our most skilful, talented, goal scoring midfielder. Those aren't easy to find. Shaw is replaceable, not like for like but with someone good enough. Shaw is potentially world class, Lallana absolutely isn't.
nta786 Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 If Targett is good enough to step up and become a Prem left back- then obviously Shaw going wouldn't be so bad. Personally, I think he'll wait one more season- unless the likes of Lallana, Morgan and Dejan all go. Lallana is genuinely irreplaceable- the cost to find someone of his ability will be quite a lot IMO.
Mallagroth Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Shaw is potentially world class, Lallana absolutely isn't. but Lallana IS World Class… you just sound silly now.
Pastor Patrón Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 but Lallana IS World Class… you just sound silly now. Yeah ok bro, sure he's gonna tear the World Cup up and go on to dominate the Champions League with Liverpool. You lot sound like Palace fans before they sold Zaha.
Chez Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 If Targett is good enough to step up and become a Prem left back- then obviously Shaw going wouldn't be so bad. I think you underestimate the effect losing Shaw will have on the side. Decent can become average very easily.
Mallagroth Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 (edited) Yeah ok bro, sure he's gonna tear the World Cup up and go on to dominate the Champions League with Liverpool. You lot sound like Palace fans before they sold Zaha. Yes Lallana is going to the World Cup. HINT: Look at the name of the competition. PS. As you know Lallana is definitely leaving to join Liverpool and will go on to be **** during Champions League, lottery numbers would be appreciated in your next post, ta. I also want to let you know that Lambert scored against Man Utd today and tops our assists chart as if I remember correctly you were repeatedly telling us deluded lot how he was done for and past it about 4 months ago. Looking forward to more of your pearls of wisdom in the future., I don't know how we cope when your not here to be honest. Edited 11 May, 2014 by Mallagroth

Calm your passive aggressive ass down with a nice hot water bottle or something. I didn't say he's not going to the WC, I implied he's going to have sod all impact on the WC or Champions League if he takes part in either as he isn't good enough. He's a very good player but he's absolutely not World Class. Yes Lamberts adapted his game well, but as a striker he's finished. He's had a stronger second half of the season but he's a shadow of what he was last year.

You lot sound like Palace fans before they sold Zaha. I genuinely believe he has the ability to be one of the stars of the World Cup, and then the Champions League (hopefully not with Livetpool, won't be us though)
DJ_TOAST Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Sky Sports reporting Man Utd have bid 27 million for him

If my post came across as aggressive I apologise, I'm not at all, I was quite calm and amused as I typed that I thought your opinions were 'silly' if you think that this is an aggressive word I apologise. I was just pointing out that you aren't very right very often. You are correct you never said that Lallana wasn't going to the World Cup and I knew this before. But you still don't seem to see how daft your original post sounded even with a hint so I'll explain; You: Lallana is not World Class. Fact: Lallana is going to the WORLD ;)Cup. You: Lambert is finished as a striker. Fact: Lambert has scored 13 league goals this season (more than Robin Van Persie interestingly) Certainly not butt hurt whatever that means? Although my ass is laughing my butt off at your 'wisdom' and how easy this is. Now if that's what you meant then this time you've actually got something right and I'll go find that hot water bottle. Looking forward to more pearls, keep em coming. EDIT: Sorry for all the smileys but I put them in so you don't get confused by my tone. Here's another one that sums it all up nicely. Edited 11 May, 2014 by Mallagroth
melmacian_saint Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 I still think one of our FBs will depart this summer for decent money. I always thought Clyne was the one going, but the Shaw hype is getting out of control and it may just be too much for us.
skintsaint Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Shaw out for 30m. Evra in for free. Would be great business for us if we had to sell him.
