He is a big unit.
He will definitely have a lot of defending to do, so he will either get better or get found outWho watched Maguire last season and believed he was worth £80m or is one of the best defenders in the world?
I have to be honest, I taught he was decent/good defender similar to Smalling, but never world class. I was even glad that City might be after him.
For some strange reason, that perspective has changed and I feel that he will become a top defender at United. Maybe because he is being supported by better players, but regardless his addition has given us the strongest “defensive” unit in the league.
Hmmm. Chinny and Big Cock Pete. There’s a joke in there somewhere.I got called Chinny when I was a kid. Everyone had an insulting nickname. Except Big Cock Pete.

Anyone else feel sorry for Slabhead that people call him Slabhead? His head isn't even that big. Poor chap.
I don't think his head is even that big. Oddly shaped though. Knew a lad in my school nicknamed "mallet head", his head was a good double what it should have been.Anyone else feel sorry for Slabhead that people call him Slabhead? His head isn't even that big. Poor chap.
He must be on a big fecking contract if he’s shopping in the megastore. Christ.

Might have been part of his contract that he gets a load of free “swag”He must be on a big fecking contract if he’s shopping in the megastore. Christ.
Most game in his first season Lindelof was paired with Smalling because of his woefulness in the air. And being bullied by strikers.I remember one game, it escapes me now, it was in the early days of Lindelof when he was majorly struggling (Arsenal at home rings a bell) where Jose played Matic so deep he was practically another center back, stood next to him the whole game to help him through it, was hilarious and horrific to watch in equal measure.
Because his playstyle is not aesthetically pleasing. That's the main reason.I'm not really going overboard, I don't think he's been amazing. Smalling has been pretty poor for the last 3 seasons is all. There's a reason why everyone is rejoicing about having him out of the starting XI.
You're making that up!
Not the most flattering song in the world
Pep, the best coach in the world said Maguire is fast, very fast.
Yet we see here in caf people said he is slow as feck, couldn't move.
Feck you caf specialists.

Tauren vs gnome
He is a big unit.
So why didn't we buy him last year when Mourinho asked to buy him?

I think it's more mind games then respect. He tries to create a false sense of security in the opposition.Pep has always been overly respectful to opponents, I remember him calling Welbeck one of the best in the world when we were facing his Bayern side.
