Rumour is Jose wants to sell Smalling and is monitoring Alderweireld's situation at Spurs. Buy out clause £25 million.

My understanding is that the buyout clause is only active if we choose to extend his contract for an additional year.

Or in tonights game thread on bbc his contract ends in the summer........

I thought it was 2019 but we have an option to extend it to 2020, however the extension also activates a 25m buyout clause. At least that was my understanding.

United have a 5 year offer in place for him on £150k a year. Rose also, £120k. Shaw will be part of the latter.

It won't rock the foundations. We've already replaced them.

3rd hand from local journo, got it from a Utd squad player. Mourinho tore into Smalling and co after Newcastle. The outside wasn't the inside. The new deal for Shaw is just a way to pretend he's still wanted, to maximise his value in exchange for Rose.

Yeah cos I'm sure the board at Utd hold regular meetings with random squad players just to make sure they're all up-to-date on the exact details of the club's transfer activities :ROFLMAO:

So it's bollocks.

Please be back for the return leg, Sanchez has massive potential, but nothing beats Toby in defence

I'd like to think Toby watched that on TV tonight and thought that he'd liked to have been part of that rather than facing Rochdale at the weekend.
I'm really not convinced going to United is a big enough step up at the moment to justify missing out on the next few months.
