Ronaldo is the last person who should be having a conversation with anyone about such matters.
Why does it matter who raises the alarm? If there's a growing feeling of no confidence in the leader then I'd expect a few of the more courageous players to raise it with the manager. Either nobody has said anything or the managers have chosen to ignore the concerns and do nothing.

I’ve seen the reports saying we’ve said he’s not for sale but dropping Maguire for the biggest game of the season is massive, if we sold him to Chelsea then paid what Leicester want for Fofana would people be happy ?

I would be happy if they paid anything more than 40m but I've yet to see a Chelsea journalist confirming they have a real interest in him.
 
I know a few Chelsea supporters and after mentioning Maguire might be joining, they seemed surprised and not overly impressed.

Or the manager still wants him to be captain and therefore hasn’t changed it.

Another defender for £90m, no thanks.

Like I wrote here over the weekend, I would guess the interest is 'real' as in Maguire's name likely exists in a list of a dozen other players who the club might target as an alternative to Fofana. He probably won't be the first name in any such list and I would guess him to not even be in the top 3 but he's in there somewhere. Only thing that's for sure is if Wesley Fofana signs for Chelsea, there's zero chance the club will go for Maguire.

It's funny how transfer rumors work. The player just needs to be linked to a club in a vague news article and from there the rumor will start living it's own life. Only thing that's actually been said about it so far (and bear in mind even then it's only the Daily Mail) is that Chelsea asked about Maguire's potential availability when your club expressed an interest in Pulisic. With limited time left in the window Chelsea probably want to keep tabs on all players in the 'shortlist' and if they already happen to talk to the other club regarding some other player they might as well ask what's going on with Maguire as well and get a general idea on how easy or difficult such move would be to pull off if it comes down to it. By itself it doesn't really mean anything unless the clubs actually start negotiating for it and as of right now that seems very unlikely to happen, especially as your club said he's not for sale which probably made him drop down a few places on the list of targets.

As things stand I'd say this transfer is about 100/1 to happen, but you can still keep dreaming. :angel:
 
Mobility and agility? Maguire will never play for us again if that’s what he wants :lol:
 
With ETHs comment on the back four HM must be considering Chelsea
 
Assuming Chelsea match Utd's wages and he doesn't mind living in London, I really don't see why I wouldn't leave if I was Maguire. I move to a better team and move away from a fan base who hates me.
 
45 minutes without him is clear enough for me, we've moved the ball so well without him.

Get rid.
 
Even with his form back, he’s just not compatible with this type of football. Varane had people run in behind him this half but he’s able to recover.
 
60 million, we get reinvent in a CB and RB. Good deal, Chelsea has many many young players maybe we can get 1 or 2 at the same time.
 
Get him out. No need to get any money even, just ship him there.
 
Maguire, thinking of his own career, really should be looking to leave.

No more of the grief and headaches he has been mired in at United; a system that suits his game, and on top of that, no pressure of being captain, and, CL football this season, to boot.

Unless he prefers the north, it’s a no-brainer if indeed the option is there for him.
 
Think this game could be the nail in his Utd coffin if Martinez and Varane can get a consistent run going.
 
Please for the love of god, keep Bailly instead of him and send him to Chelsea if their interest is genuine.
