McGuire is garbage

Not a lot he could have done about that, to be fair, but let the haters keep on hating.

 

[Slime]

He's simply the greatest.

He’s a defensive liability. Far too error prone and he’s slower than Roddy to a bar.

To be fair he is a decent mid table CB at best - how a club paid £80mil plus for him is criminal , the most expensive defender ever ???

Loved that summary "got up like a non-league centre back". Some header that. Can United actually game manage the situation from here?

They can if they sub Maguire ?

United were mugged, Phil. As I have said, Leicester didn’t need to sell, they knew United were desperate for a centre half, so they basically said “If you want him, that’s our price”, and steadfastly stuck to it.

We should have looked elsewhere.

But that's not the players fault.

At the time though how many viable alternatives were there and given the mess United were in post Fergie how many players really fancied coming to Old Trafford?

lol really? how many players wanted to go to United and be paid over 100k a week? they had their pick pretty much and choose Maguire then stuck to it

I can’t recall who was available at that time, but Maguire is, and was when he was bought, pretty average. For whatever reason United decided he was their man, and they were willing to pay the ludicrous transfer fee.

Cristiano Ronaldo, just a phenomenal player, even at 37.

He's been the hide and seek champion for most of this season at yernited. A hatrick only papers over the cracks.

There's just nobody better, and I don't think there ever has been.
