As soon as we lose him we all realise how important he is to our defence, is he worth 80 mill? No. Is he the best defender we’ve had since vVdic and Ferdinand left? Absolutely yes.
Come on, that's now a very high bar, just shows our disastrous recruitment post SAF. Maguire is solid most of the time, his fitness is his greatest asset. I think he's marginally better than POTY Smalling.As soon as we lose him we all realise how important he is to our defence, is he worth 80 mill?

He's as good a defender as Smalling and far far better on the ball. We haven't had many great CBs since Fergie left, but Maguire is very very good. He's not the type to elevate a defence around him into a title winning defence - he's not world class - but if you coupled him next to another top tier (not world class) defender we'd be absolutely sorted.Come on, that's now a very high bar, just shows our disastrous recruitment post SAF.

By far our best centre-back and one of the best in the Premier League.
His presence, communication and reliability gives us that feeling of security at the back.
He will a huge miss..
No, he is talking about the very reliable and world class BaillyYou can't be talking about Maguire
Yeah, he's miles ahead of Lindelof, Bailly, Rojo, and Tuanzebe. But he's not a top 10, 15, or even 20 defender. He's not better than Thiago Silva or an in form Rudiger.If that margin is the size of the Grand Canyon then I'd agree. He's miles ahead of anyone post Vidic/Rio in my book.
1 - He's nowhere near to a peak Thiago Silva (few are) but he's every bit as good as the current version and he would be absolutely rock solid under Tuchel, where their defence gets a lot of protection from the system.Yeah, he's miles ahead of Lindelof, Bailly, Rojo, and Tuanzebe.

I'd guess that a lot of his detractors were vocal about Bruno being captain after his first few weeks at the club. A lot of them allowed their Bruno fanboyism to back them into a corner and couldn't bring themselves to admit that he's a very good defender and a good captain.Has he made any big errors recently? I'm trying to understand the animosity in this thread. As far as I can remember, he's had one maybe two occasions this season where a quick attacker beat him 1v1 but otherwise has been extremely solid in everything he did.

Early in the season after the greece shit and when the rest of the team were fcked and tired.Has he made any big errors recently? I'm trying to understand the animosity in this thread.

Hes been great imo for the most part. Hes been caught out here or there but nothing major in terms of 'wow hes shit'. In fact the worst thing about him is that he manages to get his head on the ball on corners offensively but misses the target a lot.
No william prunier.
Seriously if Maguire wasnt English he'd be much higher rated with fans.
Our english players have always had a raw deal over the years.
Saw someone on here early on the season saying we should loan him out
No news on the injury yet I'm guessing? Took a look but wasn't sure if I missed anything.
Hate these kinds of injuries. Feels like they could literally say oh he's fine it'll just be two days or equally possible for it to be a season ender.
And one of them he scores its ruled out wronglyYeah that does annoy me a bit. Should've had 4-5 goals atleast, I think a few were free headers as well.
It's because they believe that by looking closer to home, United are somehow ignoring a world of outside possibilities. Possibilities that helped them to win the quadruple in Football Manager or whatever.As a result of a multinational fan base. It’s a strange thing to criticise players from the country of the club - but our fan add sure love to do it.
I honestly don’t know why.
I know it's a shitty source but The Sun running that Maguire will miss the last 4 league games and a doubt for the final...
Wasn’t he getting a scan today?
Would have expected to have heard something by now.Yeah which suggests the info is out there...
