Anyone with an iota of common sense who glances across their timelines will see what kind of person they really are. Its not just faceless itks though. Sky sports, the sun, the mirror etc have all been talking absolute shite about Harry all summer. I get it, as big stories make them money, but when the big stories are clearly made up, it starts to become ridiculous. Sky sports are absolutely desperate for him to join United. Every day they have a new story/complete bollocks on Harry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The faceless wannabe ITKs don't speak to managers, players, DoFs, agents etc - they just make stuff up or have a friend of a friend who occasionally empties the bins at the training ground and might see something once in a blue moon. There has been a lot of bolllocks spouted by Sky this summer on many topics and even talkSPORT ramp stuff up a bit much for my liking at times. I don't, however, think the press/media are "desperate" for Maguire to sign for ManU. I think they just want big headlines and clicks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get it and can't say I blame your bosses and fellow peers in the industry. Man Utd have the bigger fan base, which means more people to spend more money. We are the smaller club with a smaller fan base, so in the eyes of the people in power, we're not worth as much. But on the flip side, I'm loving the narrative that we can spin from this... Little ol Leicester City holding out against the big bad Manchester United, standing our ground and not bending backwards to their sense of entitlement just because they're 'bigger' Telling them to put up or shut up...

If he signs for United though then that creates big headlines/clicks. Him staying at Leicester would be very boring for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what glory supporting does to you. They don't actually care about the club in anyway. Just the glory of winning and believing that they're the very best, like it's pokemon. But they'd never feel the pain of administration or the heartbreak of relegation or the true glory of winning, because they don't stick through the thick and thin. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These Man U fans on Twitter might actually be worse than the Arsenal fans and I don't say that lightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SO1 Posted 25 July 2019 Share Posted 25 July 2019 (edited) Read on the Leuven thread that Benkovic had a difficult time in his run out yesterday. If Benkovic isn't ready to start playing (unimpeded) by the beginning of the season then I doubt we'd be selling Maguire. Unless we're buying someone. Seeing Evans get injured yesterday and Rodgers reaction to it started my brain working again. Harry may have to wait until winter. No way we're going into the season light at that position.

I think the whole team had a difficult time so I would not read to much into 45 minutes following an injury lay-off. 3 goals were conceded after he went off.

Not concerned about the score more about his ability to play full throttle. Rodgers and his medical staff will know more than us. Just gave me pause for thought that Benkovic might not be out of the woods yet and how this might affect the clubs thinking. Rodgers seemed a bit more animated than usual.

Talksport actually announced on Sunday that they "have heard that Leicester and Utd have come to an agreement to sell at £80mil"' I rushed on to this forum to check the news... and I now know where they 'heard' it from. I won't take any notice at all of what they say about anything really. I don't think he'll actually go. Utd seem to have dug a hole for themselves by this 'we're Man Utd and we don't overpay' stance.
