There’s a reason why Man U are off loading. He’s overweight, doesn’t train well and wanders off the required diet. On top if that he struggles with tactical instructions. Great natural talent for someone but the phrase ‘never go back’ springs to mind (for Walcott too in fairness)
 
That is sad about Luke. I wouldn't want to speculate about anyone's health, but it makes the way Mourinho bullied him even worse.
 
Pelle is rotting on a bench in China and can't get into their team, yet some people want him back.

I bang on about this every time, it's been awful. He doesn't even make the bench because you're only allowed 3 non-Chinese players in the squad including subs. Oh and he's on £250k a week. Probably not going to be for us.
 
Well Mourinho doesn't help. But Shaw has very weak mental health issues. He can't cope with the stress easy it's why his weight goes crazy because he comfort eats. He is missing his foster family badly and actually misses Southampton and feels let down by his agent. He is very very weak mentally and Mourinho doesn't help by calling him fat etc. I feel sorry for him and wouldn't mind him back.


Maybe it’s the shirt that makes him look fat.

Stripes are always slimming, or so I’m told :emoticon-0135-makeu

You missed my other post didn't you? I would have both back as Bertrand will be gone.

That's a shame to hear. I sympathise on a personal level. On a footballing level we have higher priorities than left back even if Bertrand goes.

Nah, people reminisce about his time here. No-one has seriously said they want him back. We did great from that deal, as did he.
 
Walcott willing to take a cut. I reckon Shaw would as well.
Sentiment aside though (and assuming we lose Bertrand to City) would you play Shaw over Targett / McQueen? Walcott would walk straight in to our team of course. And he still applauds us whenever he plays us - as did the Ox on Saturday. Good guys clearly retaining a place in their hearts for Southampton.

Shaw would need work to sort out his head first, but he is worth a gamble. We would probably get him for about £15m-£18m. A sorted Shaw is class
