Maguire is actually class and would be perfect for a 3-5-2. I hope we sign him, there's no hurry in all likelihood since we appear to be the only club in for him. Could get done on deadline day even, this.
To be honest I'd prefer Maguire now. Alderweireld is better next year for 25m, by then we'll know if his injury has kept him back as well. If he has a stormer, we'll surely be in top spot to sign him on the cheap, and we can finally get rid of Jones.Like Maguire and would take him without a doubt. He is better than anything we have.
Would take Toby ahead of him though. Before his injury he was easily the best CB in the league.
They were bought as young players with Vidic and Rio ahead of them. A new CB every summer suggests that he doesn't know what he needs.His CB signings are yet to be faliures. Did you expect Jones and Smalling to jump right in as starters when they first signed too?

Would be nice, so maybe in 2 weeks we'll see.So you expected a 23yr old coming from the Portuguese league to be an immediate starter for Man Utd? Makes sense. The only thing it suggests is that Mourinho identified 2 young players who he thought have potential and bought them.
We don't even know if the club is actually trying to sign another CB right now. And even if we did sign someone, we don't know who they'd replace in the squad.
he's trollingI bloody hope he knows something.
Is Maguire staying now then?he's trolling
he was never leaving, no one with any credible track record regarding our transfers ever said he was leaving, it was all press speculation mostly from your end, who then started to link us with ever CB under 40 as his replacementIs Maguire staying now then?
I'm not one of...THEM!he was never leaving, no one with any credible track record regarding our transfers ever said he was leaving, it was all press speculation mostly from your end, who then started to link us with ever CB under 40 as his replacement
you're in the north west, that's what I meantI'm not one of...THEM!

so do I and Maguire and his agent have used it to cash in, as they should do, by getting a better contract with us.I do suspect we are trying to get Alderweireld out of Spurs and have been using other names to do it.
Hmm ok I'll let you off.you're in the north west, that's what I meant
If only!I bloody hope he knows something.
Isn't the point of scouting to exhaustively find defensive talents that fit your profile perfectly? Going for either Mina or Maguire reactively isn't scouting. It's watching the World Cup on tele and then going, "they were pretty handy, weren't they?" and throwing in a bid.
I'm not convinced by a strategy that has a post-WC strategy that it seemingly didn't have prior.
no we don't we've made £2m on transfers this summer after selling the sulky Algerian retiree and have billionaire owners, if Maguire were to leave it would have taken a VVD fee as it would have had to be a head turning offer.Hmm ok I'll let you off.
When I heard 65 million being quoted as a minimum for Maguire, I did have a feeling that you were either trying to put United off or try and push for a fee in the Van Dijk region. You don't really need to sell either do you?
I took it as him looking for bites from Leicester fansAlways weird when Utd fans troll Utd fans, don’t see the point. Sure Nev gets enough abuse anyway without saying stuff like that.
9 days to go till the Premier League starts again on @SkySports with the return of Friday Night Football where I will join @KellyCates and the lovely @Carra23 . It’s @ManUtd v @LCFC can’t wait P.S Maguire v Vardy
Real Madrid weren’t interested in himIf I were MacMcMaGuire i'd be pissed at this, being forced to stay at Leicester instead of joining the biggest club in the world because Leicester decided to play hardball.
I said biggest, not best.Real Madrid weren’t interested in him
They’re bigger than you as well as betterI said biggest, not best.
No, they're really not. It always amazes me how you oppo fans refuse to admit we're the biggest club in the world.They’re bigger than you as well as better
You’re the biggest in England by far but you really underestimate the pull both Real and Barca have globally it’s bigger than unitedNo, they're really not. It always amazes me how you oppo fans refuse to admit we're the biggest club in the world.
Barcelona and Real are bigger clubs imo.No, they're really not. It always amazes me how you oppo fans refuse to admit we're the biggest club in the world.

Doesn't look like this is happening. Leicester have told us to feck off.
In Madrid's case it isn't even close to be fair. They trump us in almost every category (bar in revenue, where we generate 4m more than them).Barcelona and Real are bigger clubs imo.
