Yeh and it would be £100m next time for him
I don’t get this. Anything over £50m is an absolute joke.
I wouldn’t even want him at that tbh. There are much better out there for that price.
Maguire is definitely an improvement on what we’ve got but if Leicester want £90m I would say thanks but no thanks, you can have £50m but if you want a penny more then more fool you - no one is paying above £60m for him. We can’t be held to ransom just because we can afford big transfer fees.
Think they would rather we threw in a prawn sandwich and a packet of monster munch.Offer them 50m and Phil Jones
I was actually thinking about it the other day on a serious level. £50m plus Jones would save them replacing him. Get 100k a week off of our wage bill and Jones would be a very good defender at a club that defends all the time and plays on the counter. His biggest problem seems to be lapses of concentration which would happen less often playing for a back foot team. When we’re backs against the walls he has good games. He’s a calamity when running back towards his own goal.
Just read a story that said Maguire is close to City for £60m but whenever we are linked with him we have to pay £90m. The media ey...
Alderwerield all day any day.What is the general feeling on Maguire? Would Alderwerield be better?
I thought Maguire was City bound.
What about Skriniar in the Lukaku deal.
I'd say it's more like going from a 6 to 6.5. Toby is an 8.... from Smalling it's going from a 7/10 player to an 8/10 player which for that fee is a big gamble.

Sad fact is we need someone to complement Lindelof's skills. Is that person Maguire? If he were not English would he be anywhere near the shopping list? Not being English, the team having an English core means nothing to me.
This CB situation has got me panicking now,All last season we talked about how much we needed a good CB and still we start pre season without one,Everyone knows a good pre season is vital especially in a new team ESPECIALLY first game against Chelsea,If we lose that first game it will feel like we're playing catchup all season again.
If we don't bring in a good CB then what's the point in bringing in AWB? We could just ruin his career in this one season.
