Luke Shaw being forced out of United by Jose? I'd take him at Chelsea any day. I think he'd make a great wing back if he improved his fitness.

We're sorted at RWB with Moses and we also have Aina and Azpilicueta who can cover there. If Alonso gets injured we have no naturally left footed players to replace him. Alonso's been great so far for us but I honestly think his lack of pace will get exposed eventually. He's been great going forward the last few games but he does let way too many corners come in from that left side.

Thoughts?

I really don't think he has a lack of pace? okay he is not dani alves but he isn't ivanovic either.

Agreed but his injuries worry me plus we do have rahman which I feel would be better as a lwb instead a left back where he played last year.

I think Rahman would be a good back-up/ understudy.

Real shame that Ed002.If he was to be available, he would represent a great option to have competing with Alonso and we should have got him when he left Southampton.
It seems that the club won't touch any high profile English players with a bargepole, for whatever reason.
Doubt Utd and, specifically Mourinho, would countenance selling to us if they did make him available anyway.

Rahman is awful left back but he's quite good left midfielder. Ake is a very good backup solution as well.
Luke Shaw would cost a fortune.

in fairness which "high profile English players" would you want? i'm Scottish and I can say without biased goggles that England do not have world class players right now. maybe some of the younger ones could be but none right now which would play for us.

Rahman would be playing LWB and as such he wouldn't need to be as solid defensively as playing LB.
