Piss Arsenal off even more and bid for Maitland-Niles when we bid for Sanchez. £50m for the pair.
why don't we go for that young English defender from everton,looks cool on the ball great passer and imo will grow to be a top top world class cb with the help of pep,,
john stones :)
This is precisely my view on these type of signings. They're a huge gamble and the likes of Bayern don't make these signings. If you want to win all the big trophies, you sign world class players. Not players of Maguire's level.
So many don't understand this aspect of Pep, I think there is a possibility of doing just that with Maguire, and he's young enough, many central defenders don't peak until they're nearly 30, its a lot of money but better value than Evans, and a better defender.pep wants to buy players he can develop into potential top class players.
That’s not a justification to sign this puddingI'd certainly rather we paid £20m more for Maguire than sign Jonny Evans.
you can't just buy world class players all the time. if we only did that, we may as well just bid for kroos, messi, players like that.... pep wants to buy players he can develop into potential top class players. stones wasn't world class when we bought him. you dont know what maguires level is yet either - hes still young and still developing.
