LC/FC Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 8 minutes ago, lgfualol said: 6 years with the option for 1 more. Not bad for Maguire. Great fee for us. Good luck Slabbers. So the same length as another person beginning with M... And that went well for them. Hmmm..... (Moyes)
Gav_LCFC14 Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 If the rumoured £200k/week contract is true and he sees out the 7 years that's a potential £72m In wages. We unfortunately cant compete with those wages. Good Luck Slab Head.

gerrytaggart Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 Everyone's a winner. Maguire gets a better weekly wage and settles into mediocrity. And we get a load of dosh.
RowlattsFox Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 Be interesting to see how he handles the pressure because it will be immense and people are going to want perfection for £80m. Any slight mistake and he will hear "and he's supposed to be a £80m player"
Finnaldo Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 A loss, but not a great loss and gone for well over the odds at £80 million. We could do with a replacement but its hard to judge how urgent that is, and could really depend on if Benko stays fit. Great business from Whelan & Rudders, good luck Harry lad done your job here and we got a steal off you, win-win for us and Man U pay over the odds again, happy days!
urban.spaceman Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 No bitterness from me - they're a massive club despite the fact that they're currently shit. £ 85m for someone who has arguably been our 4th best centre-back in the last 5 years is unbelievable business. And for Susan Whelan to negotiate such a great deal with Woodward just proves we're underpaying her when you compare her salary with Woodward's. Well done Susan, RudKING and Khun Top. Vichai would be so ****ing proud.
Ric Flair Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 All the best Harry, a rare talent on the ball for such a big lad in the position he plays and that's why we loved him and what he brought us. However there are enough weaknesses there and the transfer fee involved for us to be more than content with the outcome given he wanted to go anyway. Hope he's still class for England but quite frankly I hope we finish above Man Utd this season and rub it in, but that's just football fans for you. Now prove the doubters wrong Caglar.
filbertway Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 Big fan of Harry and no hard feelings on my part, he's done well for us and earned a mega contract at a big club. Can't help but feel their fans will be turning on him come Christmas. I think the fee is probably going to be discussed a lot when the watching world see he's not worth £80-85 million. Hope it all works out for him though, seems a genuinely nice bloke and has gone about his business professionally.
syston_fox Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 The most ridiculous thing about this for me is that we got more for him than we did for Mahrez!!
car1os Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 I wish him well, except when we play Man Utd of course! We’ve done very well to get that fee (hats off to Susan).

lee7 Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 I think we'll miss the quality he possesses with the ball at his feet, the way he brings it out of defence and can create space by taking a couple of players on! But at the same time he does have his weaknesses defensively.
Stuntman_Mike Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 The least bothered I've been of all the big name losses over the last few windows.
TiffToff88 Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 Our last game of the season is at home to Manchester United. Imagine the scenes when, in the last minute, Vardy is through on goal, Maguire brings him down in the box, we get awarded a penalty, Vardy scores the winning goal from the spot, the final whistle goes, Leicester finish 1 point above Man U in 6th place, taking the final Europa League spot. Harry rips off his Man U shirt, revealing a Lee Jobber style Leicester City Tattoo covering his chest as he celebrates with the rest of the Leicester City squad... ...Actually, its far more likely that he'll end up scoring the winning goal for United in the last minute, ending our European chances
Guest Cujek Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 Was alright. Wasn't really fit last season, had an OK world cup Massively over inflated price, well done to the board for getting that for him. We mad manure look like proper mugs in the process. Good luck Harry, you will need it. Get used to tourist fans shouting Glazers out, Glazers out!
Haywood_6 Posted 5 August 2019 Posted 5 August 2019 Thanks Harry you've been good for us. I thought he handled himself very well throughout this whole thing too. Will give him a warm welcome once he's back at the KP
