So it took us from 27th May to 11th June to go from planning to considering. How long before the fabled "preparing" stage? At this rate we'll have actually signed him some time in 2037.

 

Monitoring, you forgot monitoring

We’re obviously not in for Maguire, he’s a left sided CB on huge wages. He would be our highest paid player, and left sided CB is probably our strongest position with Botman and Burn. It’s just Man U or his agent trying to create a bit of interest, maybe trying to flush out Todd Boehly.

There's obviously a player in Maguire and I find the memes about him really weird tbh, but I wouldn't want us to go anywhere near him or any other expensive damaged good from the likes of ManU. He should go abroad and restart, that lad. Needs a good move before his career fritters away.

I do think this week will see a change in the club - moving from planning to acting

 

By now they’ll have sounded out the players and clubs via agents and know which ones are runners and a rough price on fees and wages.

 

A few of the deals already done we’re free transfers or release clauses - which are always going to happen faster as there are fewer bits to agree

I must be the only one who’d take both Maguire and McTominay :lol: obviously I’d prefer other options, but I have an unwavering faith in Howe and his staff.

 

he’s improved pretty much every single player and they’ve both got the type of character we’re quite obviously looking for. if that’s who we want, get them in and get behind them. the talk about strengthening Man Utd is proper small time, Wout Weghorst craic.

 

nee chance we’re signing Maguire anyway, so I wouldn’t worry :lol:

All I’ll say re: Maguire is.. Tyrone Mings. Look at how he looked at start of season compared to end of season.

 

Never underestimate good coaching.

 

I guess the counter to this is that Erik Ten Funke has done fairly well at Man U and they look pretty well coached, no.

 

I'd be much more optimistic about taking players who've failed at Chelsea because it's obvious that they were a shitshow.

 

Man U meanwhile were pretty solid so not sure you can blame that for Maguire.

Would you play him over Botman and pay him £200k+ a week? That’s what he would expect.

The last player we had from Man United that was any good was Keith Gillespie. Since then we've had Smith, Butt,Johnson and Obertan who all came here to retire. Leave them there please.

I can’t think of another attacking player who was as awful technically as Obertan. Most players with his pace would have only needed to be a solid player to have had a good career. Was a tragic sight seeing him in our colours

well I said at the bottom there’s no chance we’re signing him. for those very reasons. but the general point still applies…

Even then, considering what they got in return, it was poor business from us. Not often that a transaction between the two clubs isn’t weighted in their favour. Hopefully that’s all changed now.

Yeah, Eddie and JT got 192 appearances and 22 goals out of Dan Gosling.

 

Maguire was quite good at the WC, certainly not a liability and justified his unpopular selection. Can't say I've seen him much since.

Szoboszlai would be my preference - can’t quite believe we’re in for a player like that.  Could easily see him being one of the best attacking midfielders on the planet in a couple of years.  Maddison would be a good signing - Szoboszlai an incredible for me. 


I’m at the point where if we get him I barely care what else we do.

Is he allowed to work in Europe? Just with him being guilty of assault in Greece and no further forward getting that removed I just wonder if that affects work permits etc. Total stab in the dark mind so feel free to tell me I’m talking bollocks ?
