Harry Maguire

[citizens_1976]

I must admit, i like the look of Sandler.

I would rather keep Otamendi and give Sandler a go instead of splashing like 70m on Maguire.

That 70m can be spent on a potential world class talent instead such as the likes of Houssem Aouar, Joao Felix and Jadon Sancho etc.

 

[hartshairgel]

I'd offer them £50m + Mangala

 

[waspish]

When you see us getting offered 12m for Danilo then I’d disagree with your assessment

Its what we sell for that counts 12m is a joke! Should be 35m for a player like thats not a regular in the side.

I'm with you, Otamendi for me is a better defender than Maguire. Why pay 70-80m and have a worse player for it.. I would go into the season with Laporte, Stones and Otamendi with Garcia and Sandler as back ups.

Agreed. If the player isn't of a very high quality, i don't see the point in buying for buying sake. City are in a position now where they should be highly in favour of quality over quantity. If a player doesn't improve our squad significantly right now or has unlimited potential for the future, there is no point in buying. Maguire is a good player, but he isn't a great player.

If Guardiola wants him, then I hope we get him. Couldn't care less what the price is.

Surely it would be £100m if we want them to take mangler?

This ^^^^^^

Pep and Tixi are far better judges of a player than anyone on here.
We are in good hands. Leave em to it.

Fred and Jorghinio?

 

[p.taker]

Fred and Jorghinio?

Have not played under Pep, so can't judge.

Yeah but it's from an Italian club. I'm surprised they aren't asking for a two year loan with an option to buy at the end. 12m is a big step up for them.

True but there's a world of difference between those two and Rodri, which suggests that on the physical and defensive side of things neither would have been able to cover for Fern in the long term.
I'd go as far to say that with Gundogan already at the club it's hard to see what either of them particularly Jorghinio would have given us that Gundogan doesn't already give City.

No but an Italian club can find it when it’s Ronaldo

I’d rather just keep the £50m and start mangala

 

[kaz7]

Is it happening Big Dave?

Poor dave.these last 2 seasons has been terrible for him

Doesn’t he get them all right though ? I mean I think he’s more reliable than anyone of our resident ITKs

Yep, some of the fees for unproven talent are getting ridiculous. I'm with you on this.

Who?

 

[goalmole]

If we are looking for a vinny replacement
Look no further than Sergio Ramos
Good for another few years yet

He'd be worth it even if he only played the 2 matches a season against the dippers.

Maguire is a SLOW, over-rated donkey who would not be on anyone’s radar if he wasn’t English. Even Pep discusses this in All or Nothing when we played them!!

I doubt City have EVER had any interest in Maguire and believe this is all paper talk.

We have Fernandinho for coverage in a pinch, even if Pep isn’t willing to blood Garcia, which I think he is. Sandler looks like he might be considered behind Garcia, but we’ve paid good money for both, and I expect them to be utilized, along with another young CB coming in this summer.

Please NO MAGUIRE!! Big waste of FFP cash!!!
