Paninistickers Posted 29 July 2020 Posted 29 July 2020 I'll be gutted if he goes. But also accept every player has his price. I was gutted to lose Maguire. But £80m bought tielemans, Praet and, err, Perez. Chilwell on song is a fine sight. But assuming Chelsea get rinsed for £70m, I'd reluctantly accept that's a good deal (albeit- leaving Congerton to go splurge some money on Sunderland, Wolves and Derby cast offs 👍)

So whoever we buy is going to take a bit of time to bring up to speed. Maybe another Justin/Ricardo prototype and Nathaniel Clyne to strengthen the squad. Clyne was an animal before he got injured. Have no idea where he's at now.

Plagued with injury and on the decline. Avoid. We don't need a RB really. We need an adventurous left fullback.

Glad you and @Ric Flair are doing the heavy lifting so we don't have to. Youtube it is then. Sorry about Clyne. Rodgers and Klopp drove him into the ground.

If he's so easy to replace why have the best clubs in the country wanted him? His replacement will not be as good as him. 2
Guest SO1 Posted 29 July 2020 Posted 29 July 2020 Give them 2 weeks to get it done or they both can go pound it. We need the cash now to buy replacements. If you and Chelsea want to screw around then feel free to play in the reserves until the January Window. We should not be inconvenienced by this.

He pretty much came because of Puel who managed him previously and only started slowly while adapting to the Premier League. He was the real deal all along. 1
Grebfromgrebland Posted 29 July 2020 Posted 29 July 2020 The dream would be getting a left sided Ricardo 1

North Leeds Fox Posted 29 July 2020 Posted 29 July 2020 Got to be 65-70m deal before we consider selling him. Would take CHO, tomori or ampadu as part payment as we need to bolster our English contingent if we lose chilly. Tsimikas, firpo or castagne to replace him if so.
Lesta2014 Posted 29 July 2020 Posted 29 July 2020 If he’s going to go can we do it before pre season! Wasted time playing maguire last summer and just helped his United fitness! Also gives us longer to integrate his replacement!
Milo Posted 29 July 2020 Posted 29 July 2020 Max Aarons, please. Yes, usually a right back, but looks pretty decent on the left as well. A la Philip Lahm. Fits our profile (and beat JJ to the EFL young player of the year award a couple of season ago).

The Horse's Mouth Posted 29 July 2020 Posted 29 July 2020 is a shame, should've been a bit of a legend here but feels like he's going down as Joe Mattock V2. 4

jock2612 Posted 29 July 2020 Posted 29 July 2020 For the right price I would seriously consider letting him go.. He is not world class which would be soon exposed at Chelsea. His defensive positioning is often poor and his crossing ton the run is sometimes woeful. I heard Rio F on the BBC recently saying he has potential but no where near the finished article. I would be very surprised if Chelsea would pay 45/50m for someone who only has 'potential' when they could get players with considerably more quality. Think it would be a disastrous move for him aka DD.

Grebfromgrebland Posted 29 July 2020 Posted 29 July 2020 I don't think anyone thought Soyunchu would turn out to be so good. We got that one right but for every Soyunchu there's a Silva, Slimani, Ghezzal, Junior Lewis, Trevor Benjamin, Mendy, Jones and I could go on all day. We don't always get our replacement players right. Most of the time we get it wrong and it can take 2 to 3 seasons to get it right. 1
