TheBrownBottle Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 'A club like Newcastle could do a lot worse than get someone like Maguire.' Danny Murphy is usually fucking useless, but has he actually seen our defence this season? Why the fuck would we need an overpaid human mo'ai? Who would he replace, Botman? Fuck me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Yeah, Maguire is exactly who the team with one of the best defensive records in Europe should be looking at, Danny. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Reckon we might go back in for someone like Harrison. If Leeds are still signing players, we might get the green light from them and while some might think we have "moved past" signing someone like Harrison, if our recruitment team like him, their opinion won't have changed overnight. I'm honestly not sure they are targeting a specific position, I think if someone on their list becomes available, they will make the move happen.

STM Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Howe would get the best out of Maguire and Maguires best is a top 6 player at least IMO. That said, he's severely damaged goods, on hefty wages and no spring chicken. So it's a no go. We were linked with Shaw weren't we? Did he ever sign a new contract?

Menace Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I don't think theres much improvement from Lascelles with Maguire to be honest. Would be a completely baffling signing considering his age/wages Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, I'm not going to advocate us signing Maguire because I don't want him either but he's a markedly better than Lascelles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 It's neither. You're comparing Maguire at his best by saying he's top 6, but Lascelles at his best wasn't exactly shit under Rafa was he Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menace Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Fair We do need a defender to partner Botman in the future but Maguire is a complete no from me. More than likely Murphy is just spouting shite as usual anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Jinx Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 He’s basically a similar player to what Lascelles is. Both huge lugs that would both have been classed as great players back in the late 80’s or some other time when end to end long balls were the order of business. Both prone to the exact same brain farts that instills panic amongst teammates in todays fast and tactical game. Both have been sussed out however they paid far more for their one so it’ll take them way longer to wash their hands because of the fee involved.

r0cafella Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Why would we buy Maguire to sit on our bench? He’s on a massive wage and unlikely to improve given his age. Im sure Eddie could get the best out of him but I don’t think he would represent any form of value for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonsays Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I think it is now well known that Maguire is useless for a team that plays a high press. I'm struggling to think of a defender less suited to our style of play than him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazzy Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Sounds too good to be true so its almost certainly not. Would be an outstanding signing especially at that price, obviously its alot of money but he's 27 so in his prime years and he's proven his quality at the highest level for a long long time. Good injury record also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manxst Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 “Sergej Milinkovic-Savic has reportedly broken off contract renewal talks with Lazio as Newcastle United’s interest grows stronger. The 27-year-old Serbian star’s current deal expires with the club in June 2024 and his renewal has been a key talking point this season in the Italian capital. Lazio do not want to lose Milinkovic-Savic and have been desperately trying to tie him down to a new contract, but the player is seemingly interested in finally taking the next step in his career. As reported by Il Messaggero (via LazioNews24), Milinkovic-Savic’s agent Mateja Kezman has suspended contract renewal talks with Lazio, suggesting that his client is ready to leave the club this year.“ https://thelaziali.com/2023/01/12/newcastle-serious-about-milinkovic-savic/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
