    Wouldn't mind Caulker being one of our four CBs although guessing a few teams will want him.

    Wanted Caulker before he went to Cardiff. Would love to pick him up if Cardiff goes down...he and Lovren would be a monstrous pairing.

    It would seem that the top four is all but set at this point.

    Once again it looks like the deciding factor in the title race is going to be who has the best manager. Mourinho is just a different class.

    The Daily Mail are reporting that Manchester United are offering a new contract to Tom Cleverley, that will be worth in the region of £15m.

    barkley need look no further than rodwell for a reason not to leave yet (although to be fair, injuries haven't helped him)

    That's very sensible ... it would be embarrassing for Moyes if they let him get to the last year of his contract and Wigan offered 250k for him :)

    I don't want the price for Shaw to reach the point where it is a no brainer for Katharina. Please, Katie, keep our team together for at least another season.

    Or he could look no further than Rooney who was starting 11 from the moment he arrived. In the end it all boils down to whether Barkley is actually as good as the hype!!

    He definitely wouldn't be a starter yet, he's only just broken into everton's team

    Not that much different to Rooney.

    Rooney was 67 games 40 starts
    Barclay is 46 games 28 starts
    Shaw is 57 games 52 starts

    I was more saying is he as good as the hype or is he another Wilshere 'the future of England?'

    Added Shaw as a comparison for good measure considering most accept he would be first team for most of the teams interested in him.

    New thread replaces this one which is well over the 1000 posts. Apologies for not spotting it.
