He's going to play Ashley Young of course. Top player.

How much of a blow is it to ye that Shaw's out?

On it's own, it's not a problem as Young has been excellent at LWB. However, with injuries to Raf and Valencia, we have to play him at RWB where he is not as effective. We will probably play Young and James as our wingbacks. Not ideal by any means but nothing we can really do.

Reece James has played more during Pre-season at left wing back than Shaw, so not really a major problem. It's just one of a number of smaller problems that are building up to become a major problem.

Basically we're doomed.

no idea when it came in, but the draw is live on sky in a few minutes and they just gave the intro to it with that "headline"...

Rayne Wooney · 13-08-2014 08:59PM

Chicos agent said he hasn't heard anything about a swap deal but there will be news soon

Not sure if that's about Chico or Vidal..probably Chico but I can't understand why we are still letting players go without bringing any in

theyve made a mess of the draw...what the f8ck are they playing at?

tupac_healy · 13-08-2014 09:05PM

I see RVP decided to keep the num 20 shirt, thought he would have taken no. 9 as it's his international number???

Small topic of conversation but hey may as well lighten the mood a tad!

homerjay2005 · 13-08-2014 09:05PM

Away to MK Dons......wouldnt mind going to that one, very decent away trip.

Whatsisname · 13-08-2014 09:08PM

"The home of the forgotten legend that is Alan Smith" which is what I was gonna say until I realised he went to Notts County

Ah it's related to his first premier league trophy, I can certainly see the reasoning behind keeping it.

he said last season he didn't want fans needing to buy another shirt, and he won his first league with it too.

Fair enough. He'll toe the line in this regime anyway..

Just saw this on fb linked from joe.ie.

KH25 · 13-08-2014 09:19PM

Lads I'll take the blame for Shaws injury, I put him on my fantasy team the day before he got injured. This has happened before with the likes of Vidic, Ramsey, Bale, Ronaldo, Keane, Saurez(ban) and many more for me.

Im sorry I continued my curse.

Saw that earlier on reddit, found this one in suggested videos after it.

Should have got Ruud to show Welbeck how to finish.

Funniest transfer rumour of the Summer - Welbeck to Hull.

Half the lads in here think that's where he should be. If it's not a bit above him.

Miguel Delaney painting a panicky picture about Utd's transfer movements.

I imagine some will agree and some will disregard it.

Whatsisname · 13-08-2014 09:50PM

Some hope of getting Benatia and Strootman (in January probably) off Roma.

i dunno whats funnier, the fact that they'd believe Hull would actually get him or anybody would pay £14m for him though in saying that if they get £12m for Long, anything is possible.

for £14million id carry him to Hull on my back. however, given that we already look set to lose 10+ players this summer, Welbeck is going nowhere and he is going to be a really important player in LVGs eyes.
