Maguire is either 6ft 3 or 6ft 4. Gibson is 6ft 2. Yeh I thought that, everywhere reports maguire at 6,2" and it's just wrong the guy is an absolute monster, literally taller than the guy that played predator

Not too tall for a CB which is a drawback but can play the ball out without panicking. Always a gamble at this age but the upside is huge. 18 minutes ago, AmarteyAndChill said: Wes Morgan is about 6ft 1? That's not tall for a CB. 8 minutes ago, Devonfox1884 said: Agreed, Maguire certainly looks more of a unit. Out of interest though, I've checked and it seems Maguire is 6'2 - only one inch taller than Gibson! I remember a CB who did ok for himself, and he was only 5' 11".

Maguire is 6'4 apparently, it was shown on the LCFC TV clip of him getting his medical for those interested - https://www.lcfc.com/lcfctv/420318 (6 ft 4+ inches on left, 194 cm on right)

Having said that I'll take Gibson every day of the week at 6.1 though.

thybluefox Posted 30 June 2017 Posted 30 June 2017 1 hour ago, TaggertvsWise said: I think a bulky 6:2 appears much bigger than a lean 6:1. Mobility & strength, the contrast is potentially delicious. Careful, if you're still in the hotel Ben might hear you knocking one out ? "Ooohhh Gibbbssssssonnnnnnnnn"

les-tah Posted 1 July 2017 Posted 1 July 2017 personally id snap Him up.. Gibson and Maguire partnership could see us for the next 8 years.
m4DD0gg Posted 1 July 2017 Posted 1 July 2017 Read the article in the mockery that we think 25m is to steep. You can garuntee that other potential suitors will think 25m is good value

Dames Posted 1 July 2017 Posted 1 July 2017 Pay the price or we'll miss out as we did with Keane last year. Transfer fees are only going to get even more stupid so £25 Million for a player knocking on the door of the England squad isn't too bad. Just pay it.
