If it makes them better then it's worth it. I'd kill to have a Maguire-Lindelof partnership at Arsenal, miles better than anything we've got.

Also didn't we just pay 80m euro for Pepe yesterday? I mean, today might not be the day to roll around laughing at Utd for spending 85m.
Country: England
At least these teams are passing around the “Maguire money”.
Palace are tight *****. They sold AWB for 50m but haven’t even signed anyone yet. Jenkinson is available for them to take ffs.

Wouldn’t be surprised if Leicester tried for Chambers with some of that money. They wanted him a couple of years ago.

Maguire is great as an auxiliary attacker . Not sure it makes them more secure defensively though. Rather have bought Bielik does the same thing .
Country: England
Attackers have always been worth more than defenders that’s how the market has been for years.
Saying that, I actually like Maguire but he’s no VVD and a lot of people were laughing at VVD when he went for that ridiculous fee.
Utd would have done much better swapping Lukaku for Škriniar and then getting in someone like Moussa Dembele from Lyon, that would have represented better value and they would have got a quality defender.

Miles better.
None of them are better than Sokratis.
Are you living in your own little bubble? Maguire is miles ahead of Sokratis. Not just in ability but he has 5 years on Sokratis ffs.
You just compared one of best wingers in europe to a guy who is decent defender and nowhere near to Van Dijk level. Manutd did overpay.
True, can't argue with that. But Maguire is good, and maybe more importantly he's English and established in the NT. Utd are clearly trying to build a core of British players. Could pay dividends in the future on the pitch and commercially. If he does well then after a season no one will care that he cost 80m odd.
Country: England
True however this is better than Trashford, Martial and whatever striker they’re getting.
Auba Laca Pepe
Selling Lukaku and replacing him with Dybala will cost them imo. Not enough goals in their side.

They were linked with El Neny too.

United need CM, if they lose Pogba they could finish 8th.
I just don't see the difference. They're both good transfers, and they were both a bit excessive. We were happy with Pepe, Utd fans will be happy with Maguire. He makes them better, simple as that.

No, he isnt miles ahead. He is english though and therefore overrated.

Van Dijk wasn't on this Level in Southampton too, Maguire could make the next step at Manchester.
They can pay it, so it's their decision. Better get your first choice than a worse second choice. Liverpool waited long for Van Dijk too.
Only big difference is Klopp and Ole. Klopp is one of the 2 world best at the moment, Ole is only a mediocre head coach so far.
Ole has to get results now with this team, think they will be in the Top 4 at the end of the season. But not sure with or without Ole.

Manutd now are miles better defensively but offensively everton attack is better and their center midfield it bit meh apart from Pogba. the top 4 race will be as close as last season too.
