Roberto Soldado extends his stay with Granada until 2021.
Seems a fair deal...
Yeah that's fair. I suppose if we do sign another top defender to partner Maguire though we will at least have two very good CB's as our first team partnership and that helps when allowing for injuries and rotation as you would expect that we should always have one of them available, in the long run a higher quality pair would be better to avoid a situation like City had this season where their only decent CB was injured for large parts.
I wouldn't say I'm unhappy with Maguire overall, in fairness the price tag isn't down to him. I'm confident with the right partner he will become a very good player for us.
Journalists have been quite keen on linking many players to both City and Chelsea this transfer window. No other club in Europe has had so many players linked to them recently. Even us, with all of our supposed resources, have only been linked with Sancho recently when, before the pandemic, we were getting linked with many more players for the first team.
For €20m we should be in for him.
Tweet is from the 26th of June but the player has very recently said he wants to play in England.
Fully agree with your views man. I think he’s good but not one of the best. I wish we’d spent the £80m some other way. I get really nervous when I see him having to deal with a tough situation as I feel there’s a blunder waiting to happen. I also expected a few more goals from him this season.Well I said last season we needed two centre backs and it has shown. Personally I wouldnt have signed Maguire due to the price tag (rightly not down to him) as I think for that price there were better centre backs we could have bought. I dont think he is a bad defender though, he is a good one but he certainly isnt the main man at the back that we required like a Stam or Ferdinand, more the partner, so even with him being ENglish, it wasnt a great deal for that price
Could it be Ed is finally getting the idea of this transfer business. Rather than go out and crow about how rich you are and then get ripped off at every turn. Go out and say we won't be stupid, we're healthy but we wont overspend and then let Sancho do the rest by making it clear he wants to go. Seems like a sensible tactic finally!
That would make sense since recent rumours suggest Sancho has already made it clear that he wants to go. BVB know that.Could it be Ed is finally getting the idea of this transfer business.

You won't get Partey.Probably a fallback option if we can't get Partey.
Good luck trying to get him when you finish 10th with no prospect of European football. There is no way you’re paying his release clause. You have no money. And if he wants to move it’s cause he wants more wages. Your club isn’t exactly known for paying high wages except to a couple of players.Probably a fallback option if we can't get Partey.
wow if chelsea pull this off and havertz (also been linked with ter stegen yesterday or something)
basically doing what we should be doing, hope they don't get Gimenez, always wanted him at Utd
Impossible! No way they have the money to get Havertz Ziyech Werner and Gimenez not to mention GK and LB. I was told real life isn't FM
When are we gonna start slapping the cash down??
Probably if we can get that draw on Sunday but expect it will go quiet until then
Its annoying that we have to wait for confirmation of CL, Chelsea dont have confirmation but they seem to be making a lot noise.
Who reported this? Mean, journalist?
