To be fair I thought it was total nonsense that our board would hire Gerrard as our manager, I even laughed it off on this very forum when the links originally surfaced. How wrong I was! I don’t rule out almost anything these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burchy Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 On £190k at Man Utd. There’s better value elsewhere IMHO. Also he’s just as prone to brain farts as Mings has been, more so potentially. Would much rather we went for someone like Schlotterbeck, Torres, N’Dicka (on a free), Inacio, Hincapie or even Lukeba at Lyon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Its a bit like the time old snake Delph was photographed out of the blue at his medical. I reckon this is happening and a loan initially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take your point, but if you asked any neutral about their club signing Mings, they’d call him a clown too. And he’s our best defender. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 I don’t want him because of the negatively he would bring but he would probably be our best centre half if we signed him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post useless Posted January 8, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2023 Sunday morning Maguire verdict here, he's always been someone I thought was unfairly maligned, someone who a lot of people criticize just because it seems to have become the done thing and so people jump on the bandwagon, and that's where I feel the comparisons to Mings are apt, as unfairly the same thing has happened to him, he'll get talked about by opposition fans as if he's some sort of a joke of a defender, a lot of them aren't making an informed judgement, just going along with what others say. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell no from me I’m not a fan but Maguire often and well known for bringing it out from the back. He may not pass well but he often takes the ball football. We can criticise him being turned by defenders easily but can’t dismiss the attributes he does have. Next I’ll be hearing he doesn’t head the ball well. We can not want him but still think he’s good at certain things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody1000 Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 (edited) I am of the opinion that whoever Unai wants to bring in is good enough for me, whether that is Harry Maguire or anybody else. I trust his judgment 100%. Also seeing how Unai has helped improve/resurrect the form of Konsa and Mings in such a short space of time, I have no doubt he could do the same for Harry Maguire. If it’s affordable, then it’s a yes from me. Edited January 8, 2023 by Woody1000 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on which is why it’s better we don’t sign him. Could do with players without that stigma. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted January 8, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted January 8, 2023 Too big wages, but otherwise I think VT is too negative about him. With Unai coaching, he could make our defense decent. We do need an upgrade at CB for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most defenders get unfairly criticised, even the previously untouchable VVD is getting criticism this season. From the likes of Stones, Maguire, VVD, Mings etc, they all get bad press. I think the only one currently is Chelsea’s Silva who doesn’t get criticised. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
