He is not good enough, not worth 80m and does not deserve to be the captain, not he is not good enough because he's not worth 80m.
Why do some fans care so much about transfer fees, you support Man United, the biggest football team in England, one of the biggest on the globe. They can afford to buy a Maguire every summer, and what comes with that is the unfortunate Man United tax. Is that Maguires fault? No. Ole’s? No.
Let me tell you now, if we didn’t sign Maguire last season, we would not have finished top 4, and as such we would have lost millions. His fee paid for itself in 1 season. And in this season, he’s been largely good, bar one or two poor performances. But he’s done enough to help us to 2nd place, another quarter final, another semi final. You won’t see it or remember it, because you don’t want to..... but he’s helped us see out a lot of games where we’ve narrowly won 3 points and headed into a title race.
Give your head a wobble and stop fretting over the fact he’s probably a 50-60m defender and not an 80m defender.
Whether you like it or not he’s helped us raise the standard, we’ve gone from a team un 6th to a team who are now top 3.
He’s been a good signing, and another CB will complete the jigsaw.
Lets be clear, our old CBs before Maguire we’re not good enough, and the CBs who play with him now, are still not good enough. Hence we have shipped 2 out the door, hence we keep toying with playing Bailly and Lindelof....
It was always a long term project to go out and revamp the team, its not straightforward to just go and buy the ideal CB, ask all the other top clubs. Liverpool waited patiently for VVD, City for Diaz. Just be patient, let Ole complete the jigsaw.
Not seeing that Maguire has improved us, simply moaning about his fee, is lazy, agenda driven posting
