Not sure if this question has already been asked or if any of the prices quoted are at all accurate but: would you rather United spend the rumoured 34 mil for Luke Shaw or half the price to acquire Blind if he were available?

Spend on Shaw and Blind isn't a left back.

Blind is not a specialist left back and is also not very fast.He would be run over in the EPL. But 34m for shaw is getting ridiculous. Surely there are other LBs in the world.Rodrigues, moreno and kurzawa come to mind.

I would prefer wevsigned Ashley Cole on a free!

Shaw would be my first choice of any left-back in world football at the moment, but the rumoured price is ridiculous, let's be honest. If we don't pursue Shaw due to this, I'd be looking for someone better than Blind if I'm honest. Ricardo Rodriguez or Alberto Moreno would be decent options.

GB62 i'd have sooner signed Ashley cole on a free for a couple of seasons than Evra for another year!

It's too much for him on paper. Obviously if we have this war chest then why not as he is 10-12 year signing, but if it means we don't buy a CB or another CM for big money then no way. How can £34mil be justified for an unproven LB, its horrible how money is destroying the game.

Id bring in blind as a utility man and go for a different left back. That price is stupid for a teenager with how many seasons of pro football. The media are complaining that there aren't enough top quality English players at the top clubs and too many foreign imports and this is why. Yes he could be united left back for 15 years but he could also have a career ending injury. We have enough of a rebuild and i'd rather get in someone who can do a job for less of a price.

if you think about we paid 30 mil for rio 12 years of great service with luke shaw if stays all his career 15 years of how he is playing atm he could be world class so 34 mil for him 2.010mil a year seems worth it

If all we needed to sign this summer was a left back then I would probably pay it. But we need more including a world class centrehalf, two midfielders and a pacy attacker none of which will come cheap. So a couple of them need to be cheaper signings and there are cheaper alternatives out there
