Boyhood Manchester United fan and quality
Sign him up if de Gea wants to leave. No brainer.What?
He isn't better than Smalling. Jones? Yes. Him and Smalling are a similar level. They have similar attributes differing only in their pace and touch.
What?
You think we are going to get 60 million for a player in the last year of his contract who has made it clear that he doesn't want to sign a new contract, whose performance levels have gone down massively in the past few months, who is nearly 30?
35 mill Euros is what Chelsea got for Courtois, what makes you think that we will get more than double that? - all of this if your' 'What?' was questioning the price tag I put on DDG
Oblak isn't that good with his feet. He's great at everything else though and has great command of his area.
It just means we're weighing up the alternatives and liaising with agents through non-formal channels.
No-one prepares bids like us.
This can’t be real. Cringe
Don’t know what we’d want with Maguire, Leicester are more affluent than most and the price he’d cost for the player he is just wouldn’t be worth it. He didn’t even have a particularly good season to justify the price they’d ask for.
Thanks Simon mate, yeah I’d have to agree with your view there.
He's better than all of our CB's aside from Lindelof and that's enough for me.
I feel we are having real difficulty attracting non British players. No CL, an unproven manager who many expect to get sacked by Dec and the whole structure of the club isn’t very attractive for players who have other top clubs looking for them. British lads like Maguire and AWB grew up watching United dominate the league, they know what United means than the non Brits and so I think the club feels it would be a lot easier to attract these players rather than players from foreign leagues. This theory holds water especially if the reports of the likes of Pepe rejecting us are accurate

He posts 3 statements without linking them together in any clear way.
It's amazing that people can make a career out of writing without being able to put a coherent paragraph together.
1. It does seem Man Utd are interested in Maguire and Wan-Bissaka but that doesn’t mean deals imminent or even likely.
2. Most Premier League clubs have financial power now.
3. Another three weeks before pre-season training starts.
Nothing wrong with those statements in isolation, but put the 3 together without any link and it's just gobbledegook.
Simon Stone saying it best by saying nothing at all.
Not really, it basically says we're interested in them but the deals will be hard to do and get over the line before pre season. Ties into the reports of Ole wanting all transfers done before pre season starts. It's a whole lot of nothing but it makes sense given the context.
Simon Stone of the BBC writing something that wouldn’t look out of place on 1 out of 95 Cafe threads about why we haven’t made any signings yet
He’s been doing this the whole window. He had strong feeling about De Ligt, assumptions about Lukaku and now a ‘it seems like’ when it comes to Maguire and AWB. It’s like he’s making up excuses in case he gets stuff wrong. I never said United are pursuing AWB and Maguire, I said ‘it seems like’ not that it’s definite or anything
Agreed.
I don't think it's worth spending upwards of £70m on a CB who potentially wouldn't even be our best one. I'm all for improving but that's a hell of a lot for marginal improvement.
We need to hurry things up. The team leaves for pre-season in about a month and Ole wants all his targets in by then. Hopefully Ed delivers it for him. Come on just pay up!
The cost is irrelevant both to us as fans and to the club.
We need better centre backs than Jones and Smalling. Maguire is one of the many that are better and if he wants to come then so be it.
We need much better not 10% better than Smalling especially at that cost
It's amazing how he can speak right to my heart.
He’s much better than Lindelöf.
Simon Stone does stand up
In your opinion
Maguire is bang average. I’d rather buy three £25m centre backs and gamble on one being a rough diamond.
Issa Diop went for a relatively low fee last summer.
William Saliba or Joachim Andersen could be that guy this summer.
Ruben Dias has a £54m release clause and is highly though of.

Seriously? Thats a steal!
Signings like Maguire is what we need to get away from. Not worth it.
He has a lovely shaped head though. Exactly like a brick. Him, Smalling and Jones in defense would be Blockhead FC.
He has, but you're getting the risk of him not being suited to the Epl or having adaptation issues. You do.not get that with Maguire.
If Dias would've been 25 mil, then yeah, the risk-reward would've been worth.
If Dias would
