maguire for evans

[treer]

So going back to basics, Man u sold Evans for 7m, who then ended up at Leicester for 4m, and bought Maquire from Leicester for 80m.

It is hard to see which club has had the better deal.

Maguire has played 4 games for Man United.

[StanSP]

Either way, we got the better deal

Leicester. Always Leicester.

 

*It was actually £3.5m payable over 2 instalments over the period of his LCFC contract, if Leicester serves.

 

West Brom turned down a £25m bid the summer before.

 

We are rotters aren't we?

It’s not hard at all. 

 

They spent 80 million replacing Evans with a lesser player. We spent 19 million replacing Slabhead with a better one.

Depends how you measure transfers but we're not going to see who got the better deal after 4 games of the season.

 

Of course Maguire won't win half as much as Evans did there but Evans played in a better Manchester United team.

[Finnegan]

Most of the "actual" United fans I know always liked Jonny Evans and always rated him. Few wanted him to leave. 

[Aus Fox]

We paid £3.5 million for Evans and received a world record transfer fee for Maguire, anyway you look at it we got a great deal.

At the time united received £7 million a decent fee at the time for a player they didn’t see as a first team player - a good deal for both parties at the time.

Now, Maguire at £80m, for me needs to win a Premier League and a Champions League with united and have the same impact Van Dyke has had at Liverpool to start believing they’ve had a better deal.

They’re a million miles away from that. I think they’ll struggle to qualify for the champions league this season. 
 

Off the field, they’re such a mess.

Not hard to see at all
