83owl Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Apart from being a fan there's no other reason to stay. Clubs going nowhere, no track record or willingness to promote and trust in youth players, fanbase stuck in 2015, likely to be in league 1 next season. If I were him i'd be away in the summer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Celtic’s interest has a chance to complicate matters now. If the Bhoys are truly keen, they could look to sign him up on a pre-contract basis. That would see them away with only paying Sheffield Wednesday compensation money. 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question I’d like to ask is. Why wasn’t Shaw offered a new deal this time last year to prevent this type of thing happening? His potential would have been known to the club. Or at least I bloody hope it was - they work with him every day. As with all academy players, a year ago I doubt he would have been anywhere near the standard he is now. Although he must have shown promise early as his contract was for 3 years, I wouldn't have thought he would have had it extended with still almost a year and half to run.

Bing Cosby Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 He'll either leave and become an England international, or we'll sign him up on a long contract and he'll end up injured all the time and/or crap. It's The Wednesday way. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4evaowl Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 He's shown enough to offer a reasonable contract but Celtic will be a big draw and he'd be in a team winning most weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rate of competition will in no way make up for what he may be worth if he carries on progressing. I would hope he will want to extend his contract with us anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pieman Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 We are all a bit glass half empty at the moment.... It’s great to hear a Wednesday player is in demand. For once, we might be doing something right. I am sure he has seen what has happened recently to players in his position. He is getting in the team and is improving every game. He has been offered a new deal and I am sure there is some negotiation going on. Any agent advising he leaves Wednesday and moves to somewhere like Celtic, needs their bumps feeling. At a formative stage in his career, how will that help improve him? If he’s good enough, big money will come with Wednesday or somewhere else. Hes come a long way, he has a long way to go... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although he must have shown promise early as his contract was for 3 years, I wouldn't have thought he would have had it extended with still almost a year and half to run. Monk put him in the first team last season. On that basis he was considered part of the first team. Therefore he should have been offered a contract last summer to prevent this stuff happening. It’s just poor planning. Maybe I’m being too critical. But I don’t think we should be in a position where a bright young talent like Shaw has 6 months left on his contract. Should have been sorted earlier. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitcat Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 He's just breaking into our team, he'll be nowhere near Celtic's. Pointless move for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would Celtic have to pay compensation if he left? I thought the rule was if you're under a certain age you get it from a team in the same country but wouldn't him moving to Celtic be the same as when Hirst moved to Belgium i.e we'd get sweet FA?

The amount is set by a tribunal if the clubs can't agree a price. Same thing happened with Daniel Sturridge when left Man City as a youngster, them and Chelsea couldn't agree a price so the tribunal set it at 3.5 million, doesn't sound much but that was in 2009. But Scotland's a difference country. The lad from Fulham dembele worth £5-10m, fulham only got £500k Celtic sold him a few years later for £20m. Rangers and Celtic have been doing it for years, but so have Arsenal with Europe. Fabragas was at Barcelona, not Arsenals youth set up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
