isn't a half shit back four, we've been well short there for years but it's looking fairly promising now

 

Yeah but it'll be

 

Walker Stones Cahill Bertrand

 

And you'll look suspect even against Malta when Stones tries dribbling the ball through Hart's legs to show off his close control.

It's funny because it's true

Made a fantastic start for us, pleased about the call up, on what I've seen so far its deserved. 

One thing though, watched Hull a few times last season and he wasn't anywhere near as influential for them. What's happened?

With better players in a better team now?

 

One of my best mates is a STH at Hull. Always told me Maguire should be playing, even when Dawson and Davies were at the back. I used to laugh it off.

Think (hope!) people are fretting a bit too much about Shakey's statement re Harry's injury. Surely 'precaution' implies it's not too serious and they just don't want to make it worse? If his knock on Tuesday had been serious I'm sure he'd have been subbed. The club are hopefully just erring on the side of caution and letting a bit soreness heal rather than aggravating it in training.

On another note, I'm really pleased to see Harry in the squad but honestly, what the chuff does Albrighton have to do just to get a chance? He is massively worthy of an opportunity at least.

Well, it might have escaped your notice, but until this season there was no Maguire to choose. 

 

Which is even more worrying because of how much faith they placed in 2 aging centre halves without even adding the slightest bit of competition.

 

I'm fairly sure if Morgan didn't have back problems last season we might not have pursued Maguire as early as we did and may have missed out.

 

I personally think the lad is class and should be in the team week in week out but subtle signs are there that Morgan and Huth would still be the preferred partnership.. I hope i'm so wrong on this however.

I suspect you are. I agree last season was odd at times, I think change is underway.

Yes it is. But you still know it'll all fook up somehow.

The England team is lacking a good midfield and a world class midfielder.

Maguire is a better player than Stones imo, and thoroughly deserves this. Very good buy for us.

Agreed ?. Quality player imo. Best signing we have made this season 

. He must be buzzing.

I don't think anyone who isn't a Leicester fan has a clue about how much Albrighton contributes. I don't think he's anywhere close to getting a call up.

Maguire has started well for us but is no where near what England expects of its centre halves...on the other hand if he was Irish,he would fit perfectly into our team.A typical Martin o Neil player...

Underrated player, a proper pro, elite defender for his position and actually offers something going forward!

 

There need to be balance, you can't pick the best player in every position and just start playing, this isn't FIFA! You can't have a team full of riyad's nor a full team full of Marc's. As long as england doesn't find balance, there won't be any success!

 

IMO, he won't get any call up anytime soon, he isn't flamboyant enough, he isn't the type of player that makes you jump from your seat nor is he playing for a big club, he is just a simple man playing simple football.

I'd say that applies to far too many people on here too...

If Albrighton can't get a chance now against Malta, he's never getting a cap under Southgate. Drinkwater never gets a look, James has no hope, Gray not while he can't get in our 11.

Cut it out with the realism ffs. ;)

My biggest criticism around Maguire so far is his song ?. I've been trying to get something simple that fits with Kings of Leon- sex on fire (probably the wrong thread but it is Harry Maguire related!)

 

'hes a great player 

we signed him from Hull

hes a man mountain 

at just 6 foot 2

could be our captain 

he is that good....

 

whooooaaa it's Harry maguire

whoooaaaa it's Harry maguire

 

Even if you find this doggo.. someone somewhere please come up with something better than the white stripes!!

It's fantastic that he is showing early promise for us and getting an England call up is brilliant for him, hopefully he can establish himself with us and England for years to come!
