Lee Mason and Mike Dean must've cost teams a lot of points this season already..

[Corky]

Mason and Dean have had such a bad week I expect Cold War Steve to dedicate his next piece of work to them.

Not as many as DDG has cost United

It's the confidence and arrogance of it for me.

 

It's difficult to explain how a raise of an arm can look expectant, but something about him being United captain makes him believe he'll get decisions. 

 

So arrogant. I don't know the details of what happened in Mykonos but you can perfectly well imagine him rubbing someone up the wrong way.

 

In fact there were quotes of him saying "do you know who I am?"

 

Absolutely love we got £80 million for him, it's hilarious. One of the main reasons for our downfall following our league win was failing to replace Huth. And we sold our failure of a replacement for a world record fee. Hilarious.

What’s gone wrong in your life to be so bitter and angry about a bloke you’ve never met  he was half decent here and got us 80 big ones what’s there to be angry about? 

As for the ‘Do you know who I am quote’ do you really believe that? That’s  classic phrase shite tabloids love to stick on celebs to make them seem like *****. You definitely seem like the sort of fella who laps up everything you read in the sun or daily mail. What a donut

Have to say the Utd fans are not particularly taken with Slabs. Seems like most want to get rid due to his sloth like speed, poor positioning and general wankishness. Some are even whispering that they had their pants pulled down on the deal for him. 
 

You have to say, it turned out nice again. 

Maguire and Chilwell....£135m.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Man Utd Fans seem quite happy with Slabhead

The only thing missing is the obligatory raised arm from Mr Maguire seeking an offside to get him off the hook

 

[Aus Fox]

To be fair, David De Gea has to take the brunt of the criticism for that equaliser, he has absolutely bottled it. 
That’s two of the three goals that were his fault and not the first time this season he has cost Manchester United points. If I were them I’d just throw Henderson in now, De Gea is already 30 and going down hill fast, Henderson is much younger with a lot to learn. I think you’d be better off with a keeper on the up than a had been - though from a Leicester point of view keep playing De Gea all season.

That's the Maguire I remember. It's exactly that kind of thing that made me doubt he was a very top bracket defender. For somebody so big he was often found wanting in the air, often through poor positioning I thought.

Absolute con man is Solskaer. Why aren't you talking about titles?

 

How much is the squad worth? 80 million on a defender. One of the best south American strikers this generation has produced. The most in form midfielder in the league, alongside world cup winner Paul Pogba.

 

I could go on. Ridiculous comment.

He's still out of his depth. Their squad I will concede is better than I thought it was, but I'm not having him, if he wins the league it's an embarrassment for the league as far as I'm concerned. Small-time attitude and lucky rather than particularly good.

Maguire did alright with us as he had a good brain in Evans beside him and N'Didi in front for cover. He has no one close to that at Utd by the looks of it.

Instead, they have to play two defensive midfielders (McTominay and Fred) to protect him

Unless that's chalked off because it was offside? Or are you thinking of a different one?

Wow!

 

It's a football forum talking about a player who left us for lots of money. It's the parochial nature of football fans to laugh at the expense of a former player when it might not work out quite as hoped. It's not like he was slagging said player off on social media. 

 

For the record it was actually the Greek police who reported Maguire as saying (to paraphrase) that he was someone with means to buy himself out of trouble (a bribe?), although nobody can confidentially state what is true. 

 

The irony is that your post came across as far more personal and 'angry' than the original one about Maguire.
