Schmeichel is 1.93 I believe. Same as McTominay…Matic at 194.
Tallest players ever to play for us?
- Thread starter Pogue Mahone
- Start date
Yet to appear? That’s some David Cooperfield shit when you’re that size
Casemiro is only 1.85m
Let’s discount keepers as they’re naturally tall. Gary Pallister was 1 m 93 or 6-4 in old money.
I think Schmeichel's is the width he was when he did that star type spread he did
Since when is Casemiro that tall?
I only do old money, McTominay is 6'4"
We should sign this guy from Huddersfield, Kyle Hudlin, I’ve actually seen a lot of him (when playing for AFC Wimbledon). He isn’t a bad player at 6’10. A monster in the air. Wasn’t a success at Plough Lane, but at the same time, a guy like this does to a large extent become the product of the deliveries he gets, kind of like Wout at Burnley:
Haha, if they keep the 5 sub thing, maybe a kid like that could have a future only playing the last 5 min defending against set pieces or being a target in the penalty area if you are chasing.

Sergei Milinković-Savić has younger brother who was in our squad at some point. He’s over 2m02… he is Serbia and Torino’s keeper now.
Never heard of him. When was this?
Vanja Savic. Moyes' last signing.
Signed by Moyes and loaned out. He was gonna take Lindegaard’s place. I think he was ultimately denied the work permit and never got to play a competitive game… van Gaal opted for Romero when it became clear Vanja wouldn’t get his permit. His contract was terminated later that year.
Maguire is 1.94 apparently
1.87 of that is his head
Like Gary Neville.
Mike Smalling is also 1.94
He also played in Polish Ekstraklas amd was quite average. He played in World Cup for Serbia as well.
Schmeical has to be up there
Not one of ours but maybe in future, Pickford is one of the shortest keepers in the PL, presumably his big gob makes up for it - he's 6' 1"
It’s fecking weird to see all this metre talk. Feet and inches is the only way my mind works.
Same here but metric is what's taught in schools so half the folks on here have no idea what 6 foot is!
Edwin van der Sar was also 1.97m, Zlatan was 1.95m and both Smalling & Matic were 1.94m.
- Vanja Milinković-Savić
- Radek Vitek
- Wout Weghorst ~ Edwin van der Sar
- Jack Butland ~ Matěj Kovář
- Zlatan Ibrahimović
Interestingly, ol' David Gill would qualify as No. 2 on a consolidated list; must have been roughly 6'7" in his youth.
The tallest United player I had personally met was Rai Van Del Gouw. For a strange reason he looked bigger then Pogba even though they are around the same size.
Will be a great box to box D/F. Hope he has great lungs.
