Setting aside the fact that most of us want him to leave for the sake of developing the team, this would unironically be a sensible move for Maguire, probably the best he could plausibly ask for (maybe with the exception of Roma, and getting to live in Rome in a slower league and European football).Tweet

Particularly if they also get McT, Alvarez,and a suitable quick/strong backup for Antonio, it's a slightly downscaled peak-Oleball set-up: deep defence, aggressive midfield with runners, then pace at the top and 1-2 skilful link players fulfilling an equivalent function to Bruno. He gets to work under a manager fully committed to him, play in Europe, probably become captain, live in London with a salary to afford its comforts, and at least temporarily retain his place in the England starting 11.
