Very convenient to first claim there are 10 better CBs available at half the price and then to go I'm not a scout mate when called out on it. And I'm being kind using the word convenient.

I'm not giddy about the transfer, it's Maguire not Messi but simply put, he's a massive fecking upgrade on the clowns we have at CB and given a choice between the 80mil being spent on him or ending up in the Glazers' pocket, it's an easy choice.
Yes, agreed with the second paragraph for sure. About the first one, gonna stand by it.
 
Hello.

Harry:"Sup ladies, you know what they say about guys who are tall and have big heads?"
 
So overall the deal is a fair bit under what it would have cost to sign De Ligt. It won’t stop people going on about De Ligts lower fee mind.



Lukaku hasn’t really been a bust. He’s going to an elite club and valued at the same price we paid for him. His style doesn’t fit for what we want going forward.
He’s not the type of player to flourish for a top side in England, that’s what I said.
 
I wonder if Maguire is slower than Jones...

Lukaku ol' chap - do us a favour before you leave please.

Have a look at this video. He doesn’t look that slow when he is dribbling past players and driving forward with the ball.

The game is awash with money and this is how it's going to be now. He improves us, so I'm happy.

you do realize 3 on that list would give us maybe one to two years at the top level. Large portion of the others could have never been bought. Laporte?
 
At hull Maguire was clocked at 29.91 km/h.
That would be the slowest on our team wouldn’t it based on the numbers Lukaku released? Also it’s different cause Maguire is running at full pelt in the forward direction so the players marking him have to stop, turn and then accelerate to catch up to him.

Yeah that is one of the slowest. He reads the game good so that helps. And in the air he wins more than VVD.

True when he brings the ball out of the defence you do not need to be lighting quick when other team are backtracking or stops to turn around like you said.
 
Well, most agree that they were our two best players last season. Lindelöf was great against Juve for instance, and in many other games. If you don’t rate them then who do you rate in our current squad then apart from the new signings?
Not many. There's a reason we came 6th after all. Even our better players (Pogba and Martial) are very inconsistent.
 
I’ve never really rated Pique. Yes he is technically gifted but purely defensive wise I don’t think he is rock solid. Again its just my opinion, that’s what forums are for isnt it?

Forums are also for wondering why you rate a defender from a side that never fails to concede over 40 goals a season (Ramos)
 
This slow thing is hilarious, he ain't slow at all,he's calm on the ball and good with it. And most importantly he's better defender than all our centre halves, in fact I reckon if we put Rojo,bailly, Jones and smalling together they still wouldnt add up to the quality slabhead has. Great signing. Him victor than Axel,sell 2/3 of the other clowns.
 
Definitely not a fan of this transfer. Had an outburst post on another forum calling it a waste of money. But he's gonna sign so I just hope he does well and proves me wrong.
 
:confused: Eh, because that's who the media have mostly linked as Maguire's replacement

Why do people assume United are going to sign Bruno....
the media haven't talked about Dunk for weeks they had switched to Tarkowski, Sky especially are often clueless with who our targets are
 


We're the only club that can announce a player before officially announcing them :lol:
 
bbc has compared his stats with those of other defenders in England as well as in Europe. For those who take stats as text book, it is very impressive.
( but the stats doesn't seem to include his speed as well as his one on one duels or situations.)

Was talked about today, especially after Brighton signed Webster for 20m. Personally think Leicester need another CB regardless of Maguire leaving, now think you need two.
 
So we spent the last 4 weeks negotiating it down to £80m from £95m.

There was plenty in here who just wanted us to stump up what Leicester wanted to get it done. £15m is no chump change and it just goes to show how clueless a lot of people are when it comes to both transfers and basic finance in general.
Ouch!

Do you actually have proof of this negotiation from 95m down to 80m?

Well, it was pretty much common knowledge he was starting his medical today and Rodgers has accepted he’s leaving. Personal terms almost certainly agreed with his agent ages ago - so unless he fails the medical he’s ours.
