TRon Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 4 minutes ago, SteV said: It doesn’t have to be him at all. In fact most us would think it probably better if it wasn’t. But, let’s just say it was. It’s hardly a valid reason to throw all our toys out the pram is it? He’s still a very capable PL CB, albeit with all the caveats around downward trajectory, style of play, potential cost etc. duly noted. Well all those caveats about the downward trajectory are the reason people are against it. You've said it yourself there, most will feel we don't need an ageing back up for an ageing Schar.

Hopefully Ashford and the team have younger cheaper option in view I’m not sure there’ll be a non-playing CB role this season. Schar did very well to play as many games as he did last season. With the addition of Europe this year, he’ll have to miss a fair few more this season I suspect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, there’s being against it (fairly reasonably) and there’s making out it would be some kind of catastrophic error that would lead to our immediate demise.

Kimbo Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Maguire always plays on the left side of defence doesn’t he? So the question is Maguire vs Botman and Burn, and given that Maguire is one of the highest paid defenders in the world and would be moving for first team football, the question is Maguire vs Botman.

That's a fair point, but I'd not be expecting us to look at ageing expensive loans given the improvements to our scouting department. Hopefully more up and coming players in the botman mold.

Stal Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Disappointed with this thread today like. Come in to something about teams not performing and points totals followed up by maguire talk. Although since we seem to be linked with man u castoffs, who would be the man u player that you definitely wouldn't want here? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Dancer Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 I've no doubt the next signing will completely catch everybody off guard, including (especially) the local journos who now know the square root of fuck all. Prediction; we get some (more) arsey articles from the likes of Hope, Edwards et all towards the back end of the window, mainly due to being spiteful bastards that nowt gets leaked to them these days. Whilst it's frustrating not to get excited over rumours as fans, I much prefer being surprise ala Isak last summer. It's better for everyone, but mainly the club.

Coffee_Johnny Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 (edited) Anyone know much about Tonali?

Twenties Unlaced Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 I don't think Tonali will leave Milan, he hasn't had a stellar season by his standards, but he's a potential future Milan captain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sushimonster85 Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 (edited) Aye, he's a good player, but he isn't going to leave Milan. Even with some of the behind the scenes turmoil there. He grew up supporting Milan, and will be there for the rest of his career. Edited June 14, 2023 by sushimonster85 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
