This is very low hanging fruit here because he's German but Tuchel really does like a jew hunting gestapo member.

Just had a look at their defense and fees - Fofana, James Justin, Söyüncü, Evans and Castagne combined cost less than what Maguire was sold for :heh:
People really need to let go of Maguire's price tag, whether you think he's worth 80million or not, he's been worth 80million to us/our defence.

It's getting to the point where if you're still not rating him you're either not watching our games or don't understand football.(he has been brilliant for the last few months since his early season wobbles)


But yeah, Leicester have recruited well. But say if, United had tried to buy Fofana, the fee would have been 20-30mil more. It's a lot easier to recruit like this at clubs under the radar.

Hopefully Bruno and Rashford get a rest tonight tbf. Maybe even Harry(though i doubt it).

Only problem is if that happens then it'll be Bruno on for VDB after 70 mins when it's still 0-0.

Bruno and Maguire are both at risk of getting banned if they get a yellow And Rashford needs a rest.

Bailly and Lindelof as the CB pairing and Van De Beek in midfield. Don't wanna see Pogba outwide again, either put him in the 10 or pivot along with Fred or Matic.

It's to highlight leicester's recruitment. And Maguire is relevant in all of this because they sold him for a large fee.
As for his current form good for him, though it seemed like none of the media lot were willing to openly criticize him for shytty performances up until the start of this season :russ:

Slab had that England golden boy treatment :mjpls:

Because he hasn't really had an extended period of shytty performances until the start of this season. As soon as he did everyone was jumping on him straight away.

He's been a top class signing, regardless of price. His only weakness is his lack of pace/mobility but even then he RARELY gets caught out by it, especially when he has someone next to him who's fast.

He's also massively underrated on the ball, plays at least 2/3 incredible passes over the defence every game. But they'd rather chop up a 5 second clip of him looking clumsy and say 80mil looooool.:patrice:

Our best CB, England's best CB.:manny:
