90 million for Maguire?

Page 4 of 6

posted on 2/7/19

Ed didn't want to buy another defender unless it was a Galatico. That's how Ed didn't back Jose. And now Ed, who didn't want to buy Maguire last season, has reportedly made £70m bid for him when he didn't thing he was worth close to that last season.

I know you're a twunt, RDD, always taking arguments out of context and misrepresentating them to suit your agenda.

Why is Ed bidding for a player he didn't want to sign last season?

Should Ed back the manager by bidding £90m OR not back him ?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Don't think many Utd fans would criticize him for walking away from that deal tbh. I wouldn't.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

well you could say that Ed has created the environment/expectation where United pay stupid fees for players. Everyone tried to pull Utds pants down on deals now.

Maguire isnt even worth the £70m bid, let alone £90m
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How so?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Sums paid for Lukaku Fred Matic Fellaini Baily even Pogba were way over the odds. United are a cash cow. They used to bully the market and get who you wanted. Now you pay way too much for some questionable players.

Maguire isn't the only CB around. There are others that we should be looking at. The French league and the German league have a few good players there. Our scouts. Should have been looking at them.

It seems to be the case that we don't really have someone looking into what the scouts are doing. We really do need someone to come in and sort it out.

Yes, or the scouts are sending their recommendations and there isn't someone at head office with the combination of footballing expertise and financial qualifications to make decisions with a strong grasp of the big picture. Scouts can't say 'this is the player to sign' - they are looking at individual trees rather than seeing the whole forest.

So why doesnt the same apply to the Jose/Ed/CB situation ?

.....

You have had this explained to you plenty of times before. Can't you remember the answers?

I don’t give a cr@p about inflation, the market’s changed etc., if this overrated lump goes for more than we got for Ronaldo I’m quitting football for good

Would rather bring Prunier out of retirement than splash £90m on Maguire

Very good question.

Makes you wonder if all the rumours Ed didnt want to pay it last season was BS doesnt it.

Or Maguire best fits the profile Ole wants.

Why didn't Man Utd buy him before Leicester did? They saw an England international and snapped him up from Hull. You already missed a trick and now with the stupid money sloshing about in the prem, they can take you to the cleaners for it.

90m is a lot for a big numb player like Maguire.

The fact is Jose didn't get the players he wanted last summer including a CB

Strikes me as simply Ed didn't want to back Jose. Things really can be that simple.

Again, I think Maguire is being looked at as much for attitude as skill set. Darren made a good point about Phelan working with HM at Hull and there are reports the dressing room is a bit fvcked at Utd.

But according to VC that doesnt necessarily mean Ed didnt back him.

How does Ed signing various players at great expense for Jose and giving him a contract extension equate to ot wanting to back him ???

Thats my opinion. All you do is ask questions which are surrisingly answered ad nauseam. If youre that fvcking stupid that you cant find the answers yourself log off.

Yeah because that's the purpose of the site isn't it.

..................

Ed did back Jose, right up until he extended his contract. Then he did not. Everyone except you knows this.

If you are going to play the 'VC said this card', get it right, and stop pretending I say something else, you dimwit.

We doubt know he didnt hack him right upto the point he was sacked.

You yourself have supported Ed / an exec drawing a line on transfer fees.
