By saying nothing he's giving the club maximum leverage (unlike a certain someone I could mention) and ensuring there will be no recriminations no matter the outcome. I don't see how any Leicester fan could possibly ask more of a player than what Harry has given us with this potential sale. Maguire has not asked to leave either, he hasn't put a transfer request in, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoareyaaa Posted 1 July 2019 Share Posted 1 July 2019 Rodgers probably wants a season with Maguire hence the high valuation, I don't think it would be a good idea to have a new man come in then start selling of your biggest assets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Maguire goes for £80m+ then we can budget for a couple of genuinely quality players in addition to Tielemans, rather than having to penny pinch and try to bring in a bargain here and there. Just keeping the squad together isn't enough, you have to keep moving forwards and improving it season after season. The bigger your budget, the more straightforward that ought to be. I could understand it if our squad was already blessed with great depth and balance but it really isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won’t get into an argument over what he’s “worth” but I think we’d be foolish to sell him this summer. Realistically I think we can afford Tielemans and hopefully a marquee winger without having to sell Maguire or Chilwell (There are plenty of other names that can be moved on to bring in cash to spend). If we keep this squad together and add well enough for it, we can qualify for Europe this season. If Maguire wants to go next summer then we could easily get £100m for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our transfer business is more intelligent these days so I’d trust us not to make any horrendous mistakes. Liverpool didn’t need to sell Coutinho but that cash bought Allison and VVD, now there’s no guarantee we buy two players that improve us to that extent but, personally, £65m-85m is of greater value to us than Maguire is. I’d like to think we can afford a quality winger and Tielemans but I’m unconvinced, if it’s a case of sell Maguire to get a wide player and Youri then for me it’s thanks a bunch Harry but goodbye 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our MO is to buy relatively cheap, young players with the potential to become genuine quality. That is unlikely to change. They do if you know where to look - Ricardo would be the obvious example of a player who satisfies my criteria of being an established quality player and yours of being relatively cheap and young. I'm not saying we suddenly start spunking hundreds of millions on galacticos, but I'm absolutely convinced that we could use that money to leave the squad in a better overall state. That doesn't mean we stop buying young talented players on an upwards trajectory - if anything, it means we can buy more of them and we don't have to rely on hoping punts for players like Ghezzal come off. We buy a Ricardo for every position, if you get my drift. I should make it clear - if Maguire stays I'll be very pleased. I love watching him and it'd be a shame to see him go. I still think it'd be a mistake to turn down a massive offer when there are areas of our squad that could really use the investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the transfer market is a lottery, we could easily spend the money on duds. I would only take money for him, if it was a requirement to get tielemans. Also probably minimum 90-100 million. As we need compensating for the fact it will set the team back bedding in a replacement, the duds we will inevitably buy with the money to find another good player.

Soyuncu is a ball dribbling CB who has shown to be as good as HM on the ball. I think he'll be awesome if given the time. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caglar is a good player, and will get better with more game time. He was a bit rash early doors. But he is no Benny (How we miss you) is he?

Popular Post CloudFox Posted 2 July 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 2 July 2019 How on earth have people decided that Caglar is a bomb scare? He had one rusty moment that I can remember, but he's barely played enough games and was adapting. He's a great back up with excellent potential. Just what we need, along with Benkovic. 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First it was Chilwell who got an absolute slagging, a kid in his first season up against seasoned professionals, now an England international. Now again Soyuncu. Again a kid who has had a couple of games in a higher standard, pacier and more physical league to what he's used to. As we haven't got the money to go out and buy a ready made Van Dyke or similarly ready made seasoned international fullback etc some fans need to think on. Our model is actually bearing fruit now and i fir one find it quite exciting. How many of our young players are there currently rumours about? Some must sit and clap their hands with glee like demented seals when they witness another rooky mistake because they can then get on their keyboards and big themselves up as a football expert as they wallow in the ability to point out mistakes. Funny how Klopp, Guadiola, Rodgers and Southgate seem to appreciate such young talent yet our knowledgeable keyboard warriors can only find faults. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
