    Yes, how we are never going to climb out of league one into the premiership this way.

    And how will we win the WORLD CUP LIKE THIS.

    CORTESE OUT!!

    As long as we keep Adam...I want him to stay so that we can torture him with SRL at Liverpool and Luke at United. Not logical, but what has that got to do with being a footie fan.

    I know! We clearly haven't progressed when selling young players in the past! AOC was sold and the stadium burned down! Walcott left and the training ground was hit by an asteroid! When Bale left there was a plague of locusts!

    We can also take other teams' standout young players, as we already do. Jesus. The only meltdown going on is in the heads of our fans!

    Fine for the climb to the premiership. We must keep our best players to progress in the premiership no?

    If you don't sell one or two youngsters at the right time, they just hold up the conveyor belt. Sad to see him go but good luck to the lad. Big price tag to justify though. Just hope he does not go the same way as Bridge.

    I feel disappointed too but I'm not sure with who. I can understand Shaw wanting to leave, I wouldn't want the club to keep an unhappy player and we are (finally) getting the sort of money for our young players that was never the case before. Still just praying that last season wasn't the peak and we won't look back in a few years and say - "remember that season when we had Shaw, Lallana, Lovren, Schneiderlin, Rodriguez Lambert, Chambers etc all in the same team."

    I really hope we can invest wisely and improve. We are still a club that should be able to attract very very good players.

    or to put it another way, we are selling a player who has played for us for 18 months for the amount of money it cost us to build an entire new stadium.

    partially because they wanted someone with potential to be better than he is now for 15 years.

    we only need someone as good as he is now.
