Please Roma, save him :bow:

I love Capoue, and would rather see him end up on another team I love.

No, probably not. Honestly, I'd be surprised if there were any moves bigger than the Matic deal really.

Not likely, the January window is the ultimate experiment in brinksmanship :coffee:

I don't think Rooney will stay on if there's no Europe for him next season. Also, he'll have just a year left on his contract. All these factors point to Man Utd having to sell him for less than 20m pounds this summer.

by B-Mac Fri Jan 17, 2014 3:46 am

we will let his contract run down rather then sell to a rival

You will struggle to keep an overly unhappy player. Rooney will have more ammunition to his cause this summer should things stay the same for Man Utd.

by B-Mac Fri Jan 17, 2014 4:16 am

how will we struggle to keep him?....if we don't accept offers he stays doesn't matter how unhappy he is, we will have the exact same stance as this past summer when Mourinho was being a p.o.s. and kept mentioning him to the media

United's entire financial structure is built around making it to the quarters of all cups and finishing in the top 3 in the league (thus guaranteeing direct qualification for the CL)... while they can absolutely survive a season or two outside of the CL or even Europe altogether, they will NOT be in a position to A) pay huge 200k wages to an underperforming player or B) refuse a large transfer fee for said player. I wouldn't be too certain that United could refuse a top offer for Rooney if he wants out this time. That said, if he decides he wants to go I expect he'll receive interest from outside of England to United will have options other than Chelsea/City to choose from.

Luke Shaw wrote:Chelsea and City are willing to pay more than £20 million for Shaw, this month or at the end of the season.
United, Liverpool and Spurs have also asked to be kept informed about the situation.

Jay Rodriguez wrote:Rodriguez has been left in limbo over a clause in his contract that states he will be due a new deal once he has made 45 starts for the Saints.

The forward, who made his England debut in November, has reached 42 and negotiations with his representatives were progressing well with Cortese last week.

But Rodriguez and his camp now fear they will be back at square one and could even face a big delay in trying to find out whether he will be offered a significant pay rise.

Rodriguez has two years remaining on his contract, which is worth around £25,000 a week, but his impressive performances have attracted admiring glances from Liverpool and Arsenal.

Nottingham Forest have placed a £3 million price tag on Arsenal and Liverpool target Jamaal Lascelles but are only willing to sell him in January if he is loaned back until the end of the season.

The two Premier League big hitters are leading the race for the England Under-20 defender, who has also attracted interest from Tottenham and Newcastle United.

Arsenal stepped up their pursuit of Lascelles by dispatching chief scout Steve Rowley to watch him in action against Bolton Wanderers last Saturday.

Forest are braced for offers this month for the highly-rated centre-back, who has been compared in some quarters to a young Sol Campbell.

The Championship club do not want to lose Lascelles but accept that it would be difficult to reject a bid that matches their £3m valuation.

One of the conditions they will place on a sale in this window is that the 20-year-old spends the rest of the campaign on loan, much as Wilfried Zaha did when he joined Manchester United from Crystal Palace a year ago.

Forest’s terms could put off Arsene Wenger, who refused to agree to loan-back deals when Arsenal were negotiating to sign Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in the January windows of 2006 and 2011. Oxlade-Chamberlain eventually moved from Southampton the following summer.

Tottenham came close to signing Lascelles in the summer of 2012 after he had been recommended by David Pleat, the former White Hart Lane manager and director of football, who had been advising the club in an unofficial capacity on young English players since leaving his role as a consultant to Forest the previous year.

The 6ft 2in defender, who is regarded as one of the best central defenders in his age group in the country and has been capped at Under-18, Under-19 and Under-20 level for England, has established himself in the Forest team over recent months and the club are reportedly keen to offer him an improved contract.

Southampton have told Chelsea it will take a bid of £25 million to sign teenage star Luke Shaw.

The Blues made an approach for the left-back earlier in January and were told that Shaw would not be sold during the winter transfer window under any circumstances.

However, the departure of Southampton chief executive Nicola Cortese on Wednesday has cast Shaw’s immediate future into doubt.

Chelsea, who were preparing a big-money summer swoop, could look to take advantage of the uncertainty at the south coast club and move to land the England Under-21 international as a long-term replacement for club legend Ashley Cole, who shares Shaw’s representatives and is out of contract in the summer.

Shaw tweeted on Wednesday: "Gutted with that news, but would just like to thank Nicola Cortese for everything he has done for me and the club! All the best to him!"

Jose Mourinho, the Blues manager, is a huge fan of Shaw - a lifelong Chelsea supporter - and the Londoners are unlikely to be put off by Southampton’s £25m valuation.

Manchester United have also made an enquiry for Shaw while Tottenham have registered their interest in the 18-year-old and were at one stage thought to be favourites to land the Saints academy product.

United boss David Moyes is likely to join any bidding war for Shaw as he also hunts for a new left-back to replace Patrice Evra, who is also out of contract at the end of the season.

The Premier League champions have looked at deals for Everton star Leighton Baines and Real Madrid's Fabio Coentrao, but in both cases have so far been deterred by the prohibitive demands of the players' clubs.

Shaw’s priority is guaranteed first-team football at a Champions League club and while he is happy at Southampton, he could look to accelerate his plans to leave the club having previously ruled out a winter move.

Cortese’s exit has raised doubts over the future of manager Mauricio Pochettino, despite the Argentine’s insistence on Thursday that he will remain in charge, as well as the future of key players including Shaw and Adam Lallana.

Shaw signed a new five-year contract with Southampton after turning 18 last July and has stated he is in no rush to move clubs, with Pochettino’s side currently ninth in the Premier League table and eyeing a place in Europe next season.

I can almost guarantee Liverpool are not pursuing a CB at the moment. Even at youth level we've got a decent selection already.
