Ric Flair Posted 30 July 2019 Posted 30 July 2019 19 minutes ago, AKCJ said: Yeah but it’s like the same for us. Take Maguire out of our back four and it’s massively weakened. Soyuncu and Benkovic are nowhere near Maguire’s level. Can’t believe the revisionism here. Many on here demanding no less than 80m while in the same post saying he isn’t all that. Make your minds up lads. I'm really not so sure it is, defensively we're only an above average team and we don't win football games by pinching 1-0 wins and being pragmatic. If and when Maguire goes I'd be surprised of it results in us conceding ma y more goals. He is very good at defending set pieces but I think Evans organises a box just as good, if not better than him.

By the way I'm talking about their ability to defend and organise a defence.I have to disagree with you regarding Morgan and Evans. Morgan and Maguire were far more suspect than Evans with either of the other two. If the only criteria of a good defender is the ability to defend and to organise a defence then Morgan is our best defender by a long way. Trouble is his legs have completely gone. Our all round best central defender is Harry Maguire and that's why he's touted for a world record transfer fee.

Ashley, The MightyFin and AbrasiveFox are the only sources who have said something well in advance of a development/got the story ahead of a journalist. Hope Maguire stays - thought at the start of the Summer he'd definitely be going but looks like it's a lot more in the balance now. Isn’t Ashley 50/50 also ?

No point in getting personal with people who have the best of intentions... I think you misunderstand what I’m saying. If you share something that may happen, fair enough, but how can you share something that may not happen. It’s like me saying, I’ve got a bit of info for you,, that car might not crash or I’ve got a bit of info for you,, Wes morgan might not move to Arsenal.

I don't see these two as contradictory. I think that the move will strengthen Man Utd more than it will weaken us, and since we are looking to challenge them this season, its only right that we hold out for big money.

Dames Posted 30 July 2019 Posted 30 July 2019 Utd are really banking on the fact that they think Maguire is going to hand in a transfer request and force the move - if he really wanted it I imagine he would have gone and done that by now. I imagine he's in a place of if it happens it happens if it doesn't it doesn't - either way the interest in him won't disappear, he'll get his move sooner or later. If I were the club though i'd be thinking of going after Sky, they have purposely tried to unsettle our player all summer.
LinekersApples Posted 30 July 2019 Posted 30 July 2019 We don’t have any money in our bank account for a player who is only for sale at a certain price. I didn't think it would be happening (based on discussions with staff and other agents) but his agent being in Manchester on the day he’s off sick which was also our media day.... is a tad worrying. Club certainly didn’t tell him to stay away as some suggested yesterday.
brucey Posted 30 July 2019 Posted 30 July 2019 Is Laurie Whitwell the only reliable journo from our side that has said anything about this? Despite the clickbait headline it's the only source I'm trusting on this. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-7297415/Harry-Maguire-calls-SICK-Leicester-training-continues-push-Man-United-move.html

So wouldn’t take as gospel, particularly as he’s no longer based in the Midlands

There was some conspiracy that we had suggested he stay away from media attention. As you know, that wasn’t the case. It was an agreed absence for illness.

ozleicester Posted 30 July 2019 Posted 30 July 2019 Do @Abrasive fox and @LinekersApples know who the other is?
