This is awesome and calls for a borat-dancing.gif.
I'm hearing via my sources that Luke Shaw is actually dead. Presumably this means the deal is off. RIP Luke.
scorgasm, you are a twitter muppet, aren't you?

Are you shaw?
That's hilarious, poor luke!
I bet he thought nobody would notice his bio for an hour, oh little does he know of the muppets.

How naive of him
I caught him between following the official United twitter and changing his bio, probably only a few seconds. Get in
15 minutes until confirmation.

I have to say, he doesn't appear to be the brightest of lads.
Doesn't matter though if he does the business on the pitch.

Sky Sports have confirmed it too.

I bought him and Herrera on FIFA literally days before the announcement.
I will now instantly buy Vidal...

That is an insane amount of money for a left back. Crazy. But pleased we've got him on board.
Me too! Preparing a Vidal bid as we speak...
£31.5m is loads of money but if we can get 12-15 years out of him it will prove to be a good deal. Alves and Ramos went for similar prices when they were younger and I doubt Barca or Madrid regret.
Who knew last week that Man Utd would decide this year Christmas was to happen during the World Cup....
Outstanding signing. He's going to be a mainstay of this team for many years to come

Shaw is £10m more than Ramos.
Sky confirming it now.
Even though I think Herrera's signing is the more important of the two, because he's a CM, this is the one that I'm really excited about. Since our interest started being rumoured I've come away from every match that I've seen from him thinking that we had to try and sign this kid somehow. He's just got that x factor about him.
And 12 years later as well. Inflation.
He's gone to Chelsea hasn't he?
Waiting for a shirt picture
Oh happy days, oh HAPPY DAYS!
Yes! Now for my favourite part, the pic with the shirt!
what happened here? There is nothing on manutd.com
Is there anything at all suggesting we're in for Vidal?
Yep but given the inflation I'd say it's similar value.
There will be at 2PM
Ducker says we are monitoring him. Right thread.
It's a bargain provided he does continue to improve, which at 18 seems almost mandatory. Doesn't need to become literally the best left-back on the planet but ideally a top European level would justify it.
Either that and he'll stay with United for 10+ years which justifies the expense or he'll become literally the best in his position and we'll probably have to accept a tasty fee from the Real/Barca lot sometime in the future.

We have 4 players who could be the best in their position in some years, especially under LVG. Januzaj, Shaw, de Gea, Rafael. Exciting.
That's a perfectly reasonable and not at all flawed comparison.
