Harry Maguire

Nothing here, against us nonetheless, to suggest his passing is not up to scratch, or he ‘drops deep to cover a lack of pace’.

He’s a very good defender and a better footballer than a lot give him credit for imo.

Agree with this. I think he is underrated and if pep wants him that’s good enough for me. I don’t think he will be any slower than our other CB’s. But most importantly he will give us an aerial presence and physicality that we don’t have in the squad now that vinny has left.

Whatever Pep does is good enough for me, he's the best of the best....

My personal opinion, for what it's worth is that McGuire is not good enough for City at any price, I don't see what Pep does if all the speculation is true about this deal...

Maybe that's why I'm a fan and he's the man......

Honestly if we sign Harry Maguire for the sums reported along with other reported targets (Angelino, Rodrigo, Cancelo), we should be looking at a gross sum of nearly £200m. The media will have a field day.

They had a field day after us spending -20m last season! They wont change so lets spend shitloads fcuk em.

Plenty have improved under him so who am I to judge!.

You need to pad out what it is your referring to and I ll try to answer.

No I don't, it was funny in my head, not quite the same typing it out.

280k a week!!! The death of football

My feelings too. I just cannot see this happening, why ooh why would the club bring in a player like him and pay him more than 90% of other squad members?

I know I will get blasted by some for my opinion, but this madness. £60Mil for Mahrez was too much to start with now £80mil for slab head is really taking the piss.

If we are that desperate, pay Spurs £25mil for Toby and buy ourselves two years to scout the next best upcoming CB at a decent price.

Ok

£80m for Maguire?
If he joins us i'll back him to the hilt but that fee is laughable

 

[manimanc]

Ok

Fuckin people who text back 'ok'. Why?

It's not going to be £280k a week. We wouldn't pay Maguire £280k a week but balk at £300k a week for De Ligt. Honestly I'd be surprised if even our top earner (Aguero I imagine) gets that much.
