I like Shawcross, he's been linked a few times. He used to always play well against Nando too.

 

[Wilko7]

A better option than Dann, eh Mark?

 

[Mersey86]

Problem with CaughtOffside is they have us linked with someone new every day - and of course they are doing the same for other teams too.

 

[Wilko7]

Agreed. Increases their chances of getting something right, I suppose.

 

[gene hughes]

I like the fact that he's not that kind of player.

I've not really seen enough of Dann tbh, the only issue I guess is that Shawcross is a typical English style defender, not such a bad thing and he does have a commanding presence which is something we lack.

I read this on the BBC transfer speculation column. It was 4th under 1) Sneijder to Manure 2) Kaka to Chelsea and 3) Modric to Chelsea.

He's good. How tall is he by the way? Saw him towering over Vidic at a corner last season.

He's 6'3"

 

[Mersey86]

I would be very happy f we were to buy Shawcross - but can't really see it happening.

 

[gareth_thomas]

he is a big UTD fan yes?

 

[SummerOnions]

I'd fucking love him here, great player, leads from the back, a better Skrtel in my view.

Not surprising, given he was previously on their books. As long as he does a good job, he can even be a Modern Talking fan.
