FoxFossil Posted 19 July 2019 Posted 19 July 2019 Much more interested in who we are going to sign and build our team around than yesterday man Maguire. Ask for a transfer Harry if you want to go (oh but that might cost you and your agent a few quid) then take him out of training and don't play him in friendlies.

Don't get sucked in by the nonsense in the media and turn against him. We know he wants to join them but as far as we know he's been nothing but professional about it. No tantrums, no going AWOL- deserves the benefit of the doubt.

But we also don't spit on the media,when they have good write ups,on our players or club,and throw around the Plaudits in our direction..even halftruths. Estate Agents and sporting-media seem to be cut from the same cloth..!!
Simoken Posted 19 July 2019 Posted 19 July 2019 What a great career hes had.... now training for Blackburn Rover
foxinsocks Posted 19 July 2019 Posted 19 July 2019 I will say it now.... i think utd will not stump up for maguire. If they were going to pay the money they would have done so by now so as to get him in for preseason. We need to stop lettting this soap opera distracting us from aiming for top 6

We’re not even being bastards. We have valued our player at a certain price that we are happy to sell at. Clubs know this, not sure how much clearer it has to be made. We just won’t be bullied like we used to be when we were desperate for the money. It’s not our fault they don’t want to meet our valuation.

We need to get on with preseason and maguire has to accept he is a lcfc player. Utd can play phil jones at cb The club should issue a statement about all these untruths and how it's unsettling our player and hampering pre season preparations therefore the club will not sell.
Steven Posted 19 July 2019 Posted 19 July 2019 57 minutes ago, Simoken said: From Charlie Adam himself... cant stand the bloke. former Liverpool and Stoke midfielder Charlie Adam believes Maguire should be more active in pursuing an exit from the King Power Stadium. The England international has not submitted a transfer request and will only get his move if one of his suitors meet Leicester’s valuation, which is thought to stand at more than £75 million. “I think he's got to force the move because he is at the next stepping stone in his career where he thinks he is going to develop again,” Adam told talkSPORT. Described as "Ex-Premier League ace"
Jack1993 Posted 19 July 2019 Posted 19 July 2019 I think Rodgers should come out and do a real sh1thouse press conference; "Yes Harry has been the subject of a lot of speculation but he has remained 100% professional throughout the last couple of weeks. In training he has looked better than ever and his fitness stats are the best of his career so far and by quite a margin so I'm not surprised Manchester United want to buy him. As far as we are concerned we want to keep him & he has told us that he is happy to stay however as with most players if a certain price was achieved we would have to allow Harry to move on to pastures new. Despite all of this I have it on good authority that Manchester United unfortunately aren't able to get the funds together to afford a player of Harry's quality and through ongoing discussions with their representatives it has become clear that they are reluctant to make him "the worlds most expensive defender" because of all the pressure it will bring to Manchester United & it seems they aren't in a position to handle that pressure. The only way I can see Harry leaving now is if a club in a much stronger financial position comes in for him, a club that is sure of themselves like Manchester City, they could actually afford his services and Pep is a man that can deal with pressure. Anyway that's just my take on it, it's a shame that Manchester United aren't in the financial position to be able to afford Harry but I suppose they're not the club they used to be" BR

urban fox Posted 19 July 2019 Posted 19 July 2019 24 minutes ago, Billy Big Balls said: I honestly think he'll stay at this point. Funny that less than a week ago I was certain he was going when everyone and their nan was saying we'd agreed an £80m deal. Now that that has all been proven to be complete bull I think more likely than not he'll stay. Man u are so far off what we would even consider looking at right now. £60m + £20m in add ons is an absolute joke. I think they can't afford him, if they could they would've got the deal done before preseason. Normally with these drawn out deals, the bidding side is waiting for the selling side to buckle and sell for the lower offer because they know the selling club needs the money. We know for a fact we won't compromise because we don't need the money. The only way this happens is if Harry pushes for it imo. Not so much can't afford rather don't want to pay. Woodward and co would not stump up the cash last summer when JM was desperate to sign him and I think the situation has not changed. They probably need to offload one or more CB before they are given the go ahead (hence why the rumoured offer of a player swap deal.)
Guest Manini Posted 19 July 2019 Posted 19 July 2019 **** me it doesn’t take much to wind us up on here does it? It’s Charlie Adam who actually gives a shit what he thinks? No need to revolt against the bloke - I’m pretty sure part of his remit is to wind listeners up anyway on TS.

The remit of all the presenters on TS is to wind listeners up to the extent that they phone in, which makes TS money. More phone calls also probably means more advertising revenue, so it's absolutely in their interests to get people phoning in. Football fans are very sensitive. If you're ever bored enough to browse through the discussion forums of other clubs, you'll quickly find that the fans of every single other club out there are convinced that the media is engaged in a sinister conspiracy against their club. There are no exceptions to this.

It’s TV for imbeciles, cretins and morons. to fair, the bar for journalistic rigour set by HITC and the Metro doesn't move off the floor, so poor as skysports are on occasions they are they arent the lowest. They just pander to a global marketing vision of football that its really just about a few elite clubs and everything else is, well a bit quaint, but not really of interest to all you super fans across the globe
Scotch Posted 19 July 2019 Posted 19 July 2019 Ahhh, good ol' Charlie Adam. Half Hitman, half binman. Why should we take anyone like him seriously? He never took his own career seriously. I had a pal who played for St.Mirren youth when he was there and on the days he would train with the senior team, he would look around the canteen and all the players would be having lunch, all on diets and nutrition kicks and there Charlie Adam would be with his two slice rolls and bottle of Irn Bru. Guys a joke.

UniFox21 Posted 19 July 2019 Posted 19 July 2019 Honestly think United are waiting for Lukaku to be sold first; once they have that income I wouldn't be surprised to see them boost their bid.
Xen Posted 19 July 2019 Posted 19 July 2019 From RedCafe: Quote I don't disagree with that, but in a negotiation, you can't start at the price you want, someone will always bid you lower.Plus maybe we the club actually want to keep Pogba, hence pricing him out of a move? They're so close to cottoning on, bless 'em. They'll figure it out eventually...
4everfox Posted 19 July 2019 Posted 19 July 2019 Man United know they can't beat us on the pitch so they're trying to beat us off it instead. We are a big threat to them and they're aware of it, hence their relentless failure of an attempt to derail us. It's all just a case of the bully becoming the bullied and they're not used to it. They need to learn their role and realise it isn't 2008 anymore. They've got bigger problems then not being able to bully clubs of our stature anymore. They've got a team full of individuals and their biggest dressing room role model is an absolute ass clown that's more interested in being an Instagram personality then anything that resembles a top level footballer. In their current state, they are an embarrassment of a football club with a manager that has even worse credentials than Neil Warnock.
