I've made it clear all summer on here that I'd like us to sign Sinclair. But I've never wanted him in place of Puncheon.

Both, yes. Just the one, stick with Punch.

I've been a Puncheon fan since league. Stuck by him even through the dark days. Seeing him play so well for us last season was really pleasing. But then again though, I did get the strong impression that MP didn't fancy him a massive amount. So if he was hardly going to start much this season any way, then ok. Shame, but fair enough.

But whether it's Sinclair or someone else, we presumably are now going to bring in another wide man?
 
Surely Targett is our promising young left back ready to push Shaw for a starting place in time? Until Targett is ready we can play Yoshi or Lovren in the LB role if Shaw is injured.

From what I've seen, Targett won't be in the first team in the next 3/4 years. Happy to be proved wrong though
 
If they can't afford Baines then I'm afraid Shaw is out of their reach.

Exactly, there transfer values must be pretty similar.
Can't believe with Evra and Buttner that left back is a top priority for united. Could understand trying to sign Baines more as he would displace Evra but Shaw would only be back up for him.

I wonder what Buttner is making if all this?
