surely nobody is going to pay forty million for Rose now are they? He hasnt been anywhere close to his best for 14 months.

At this point I’d be happy to do a swap with United for Shaw. Both players with question marks hanging over them, but at least Shaw is young, and has time for Poch to work with him.

I'd stick with Rose purely because he's a competitor and a fighter. Even if he has the hump I still think he'd give his all on the field. Whereas every manager that works with Shaw, including Poch, seems to question his desire and work ethic.

But it’s quiet clear he’s lost all his desire and fight this season, and without it he’s a pretty average player. Either that, or his ankle’s fucked. Both scenarios mean sell if we can, and replenish.

I'd rather go for Mendy at Lyon, but if that's not an option, and we can't find another cheaper gem, I'd take the swap plus 40m.

Rose isn't even that great, don't get the bed wetting.

I think it's fitness and form not desire. If next season is the same then fair enough but he's a winner I feel and I'd be loathe to lose him for a player who doesn't seem to have that hunger.

40 mil £ is a fair price. Been very unlucky with injuries for the past three seasons. I'm not sure about Shaw though. Don't think I've ever seen him play for Man Utd or at least a whole game

I doubt anyone will pay 40m for Rose. Anyway, Hercules said something about Rose not passing a medical in his current state.

Probably one major injury which has led to the niggly injuries he's been picking up. Main concern over Shaw is his mentality but you would hope he would be fired up if came back to play for Poch to prove Maureen wrong. If Poch wanted him I would be confident he thought there was something worth working with.
