About the info from a few days ago. My understanding is that the original info came from this person's Twitter:
https://twitter.com/humanity6 . It was reposted on Yaraon at
http://yaraon.blog109.fc2.com/blog-entry-21532.html . Then it was translated from there to various English language news sites. This Siliconera article is quite accurate:
http://www.siliconera.com/2014/01/28...like-fatezero/ . Some misleading translations have floated around, but to clarify, there's nothing to suggest a new "route/story", just new setting info from Nasu (who is regularly working with ufotable's writers) that is being incorporated into the anime. It's still unknown what route or routes from the game will be the focus of the new anime.

Miura: The content of Fate/Stay Night should be assembled to follow the vector introduced by Fate/Zero, we are following that logic. If we succeed things should become interesting. There is one more thing, from the time I received the post of director I decided one thing. That is to draw precisely the character who is Emiya Shirou. Shirou who is incomplete as a magician and doesn't possess any worthwile talent in the first stage of the story, adding to that Saber who is tied to an incomplete summoning, who doesn't receive enough mana and who can't fight at full strength. Despite this while claiming to Saber "Women shouldn't fights", he still throw himself in the frontine. Drawing him like this could make him a very annoying character with one wrong move. But playing the original game I realized he wasn't just an idiot who wanted to become a hero, but someone who's heart is warped somewhere. Why did he become this way, by understanding and despiting this I'm sure he could become a very attractive protagonist.

I don't think the director is implying that he will be going with Fate's Shirou. I think it's actually the opposite: he's indicating that he understands the complexity of Shirou's character (which is fully developed through all 3 routes). He only talks about the more "Fate-associated" aspects of Shirou's character because talking in detail about how Shirou develops in the non-Fate routes would be a spoiler.
