Harry Maguire - man u reserve player

[Eerie Descent]

Welcome, son.

[stubbo]

He surely only comes in if one of the main CBs leaves....can't believe we'd let our only proper left footed CB (from a future perspective) in Aguerd leave, especially after we scouted and coveted him for so long. Ogbonna...you could see it. End of career, short deal, bad knee injury and a high octane league. If someone in Italy offered him a 2 years deal you could readily see him wanting to take it.(and he'd have to be super cheap which the Italians love). Mavropanos obviously a no. Zouma...again you could see it, but he's been so good start of this season, will be able to be rested more now, and his personality seems key to the squad too, plus it's hard to see who'd pay decent money for him given his injury record. With that in mind, only Ogbonna for Maguire makes any sense and could be considered strengthening. If somehow Zouma had a gig lined up elsewhere could accept that Maguire might be making us stronger, or at least not weaker. Aguerd leaving to make way would be a huge disappointment. His best years are all ahead of him, and he's still adapting...but him and Mavropanos could be our CB pairing for the next 5 years easily. And of course Kehrer could go but as a defensive utility player, he's not replaced by Maguire adequately. Hopefully the current contingent are hanging around and it's just a load of old clickbait bollox.

Nay, Nay, and thrice Nay. Rejoicing in a great result at Brighton only for the jock cսnt to piss on everyone's chips by trying to resurrect his fellow dinosaur. Can we just leave Maguire to rot in the cesspit of Manchester United's third team please?

happygilmore 1:49 Mainly because we already have four central defenders and another player who can cover there. So unless we are selling one of them, we surely have no need to spend a big transfer fee and substantial wages on a position we seem to be adequately stocked at.

[Mr Anon]

Bit if a moneyball signing I assume, undervalued due to his memorable cockups for Man U Can't recall any bad performances for England though? Perhaps it's shrewd business, not many were too excited about getting Lingard or JWP either

El Scorchio 1:37 Sun Aug 27 Re: Harry Maguire - man u reserve player According to the BBC we are back in for him. Just… why? Maybe tell us. Why not?

I don't usually look at randon YT vids put on on here as most of them are fucking shit, but looked at this one and it is mildly amusing. Not sure it's worthy of bumping a 3 day old thread though.

[Sydney_Iron]

hes going to be the new Donny van de bench. Did think this was funny though. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/SzpvAx1I6Ec

[only1billybonds]

Regardless of how good or bad a player is, the first thing he should have is a desire to play for the club whose shirt he wears. He clearly dont want to be a West Ham player so he's best avoided. His choice, be interesting to see what Southgate decides what to do with him if he stayscat MU to keep the bench warm.

[scouse kid]

I reckon Maguire is quite happy to do a Bogarde and just train and pick up a wage

[LeroysBoots]

Not in the Man U squad today.... Oh fuck !

[Lee Trundle]

I think it happens quite a bit. If a club wants the player gone, and he's perfectly happy where he is earning more than he would do moving, then the selling club offers what he would be earning if he stays as an incentive to move.

[Russ of the BML]

Not sure if this issue where he wanted Man Utd to pay all his wages up is true. Where has another player thats been sold by a club ever made a claim for their potential wages with selling club to have been paid? It just doesn't happen does it?

[Matthew Holmes]

Very pleased we've swerved this - not because he's a bad player but because : PRICE WAGE ATTITUDE (or my perception of his attitude- no way he's going to run through brick walls for us) better value out there for sure It is hard for West Ham to buy a player that ticks all the boxes (age, skiill, value, potential, personality and wanting to play for us) so we always have to compromise. I think there are alternatives that tick more boxes than Harry Mag. onwards!

Dog With you every post I agree more Barking up the right tree as I am convinced and have been for 18 mths

[Mad Dog]

Mex. If we did go with some of steidten's players, moyes would simply refuse to play them. Stubborn twat

[Mad Dog]

You know you can type the word "cսnt" on here, right?

Moyes made to look a cu*t with Maguire. So he'll sulk for a while now and take it out on a few selected players. Did I mention he's a cu*t?

[Mex Martillo]

Pleased this has died. Hope that Steidten now gets to bring in a couple of data driven hungry young types.

[Helmut Shown]

If he wants to buy a donkey, Phil Jones is still available

[Hammer and Pickle]

I don’t recommend unwittingly opening this thread in chronological order mode. Realising one has made a mistake can be a welcome relief though ;)

[The Ghost of Sven]

Hopefully we can move on quickly to either of the Bayer Leverkusen players Steidten had flagged or Harwood-Bellis from Man City Unless Moyes is going through his ROLODEX for a current number for Andy Melville or Malky Mackay

[Kaiser Zoso]

he want's to stay and fight for his place at Man Utd Equals He couldn’t get a big enough pay off from Man Utd and has elected to stink the place out for the rest of his contract, and walk away on a free when it finishes.

[twoleftfeet]

Now confirmed by the BBC, he want's to stay and fight for his place at Man Utd. Expect his England career is now over. Bullet dodged.
