He is right if making a general point. But he is obviously wrong in applying that point to Shaw who will play more regularly for Southampton than he will for Utd who still have a very good fullback in Evra.

Yeah, I know what he was TRYING to say, but I don't think he did a good job saying it. Partly because it's not really a very good point, and partly because he's got subconsciously biased. Don't think he was trying to slam Saints for asking too much, just saying English players go for too much money.

Which is true. When we get the Shaw money I hope we invest it in cheap foreign players myself. Rather than lamenting the fee the players go for though, he'd be better off arguing that those players stick with their clubs regardless. It's not so much us asking for that much money, but rather Man U being willing to pay it (and then failing to develop the players once acquired).

What would help English football is if the FA paid Saints and not other clubs.

not just english players. players from english clubs.

Torres went for what? £50m having never scored 30 goals in a season and having scored 9 in the season he was sold.

where scholes is getting his numbers from, I don't know.

if he has a point it's that united should shop abroad where their money goes further, which applies to everybody.
