It's not just about one off incidents though, as me and that guy explained. It changes the way we set-up and build attacks. Fair enough if you don't agree.
Who is going to hire someone that quits his job before it even starts, because his agent wasn't allowed to use the club?
Bielsa also quit a club iirc. He got hired.
Brilliant signing if they get him, has huge potential.
We could ask for Pedri or De Jong in return, should be a no fuzz straightforward swap i imagine.
Lazio. He quit after two days.
Guendouzi is young = 22
How does Gattuso keep getting jobs instantly? From what I recall, he's failed in every single one of them he's picked up. Plus he has all these issues with the management as well.

Feels like Pep will have woken up to 300 missed calls this morning
Also, I wonder how quickly his pace issues disappear if it starts to look like he's going to City..
Villa really look to be putting a marker down this summer. I could see them pushing for top 6 next season
£35m is not cheap. It's the price you pay for a starter, not for a bench option, unless the bench option is striker. £14m for Telles was cheap.
Please be true
Fans have been moaning about Matic & Maguire playing together at the heart of our defence for over a year. Linderof isn't the quickest either.With Matic as DM
Ugh just get to the bit where he renews and quit jerking our chains.
He's probably Pogba's replacement
Like your point! To much talk about something that haven't hurt us as much as we kind of complaining about.
But do you think a faster CB could allow us to press a bit higher with the back four to shorten the space between midfielders and defenders?
In my head it would do wonders for macfred (or whoever we play in CM.)
Might go ahead but A Bola are definitely not reliable. They're probably still running Gaitan to Utd stories.
Ole bought Maguire for £80m. You don't seriously think Maguire and Ramos can play together do you? Teams will just play quick forwards against us and hit us on the break.
You must be blind.
Are you being serious? You must have missed our games against Spurs. Slow and clumbersome. Yes he was in good form before his injury, yes he is our strongest defender, but you cannot deny his lack of pace does not hinder us. Other posters have explained it to you as well.
How many goals have we conceded due to lack of pace?
Please be true
And I’m saying is it that bad an issue compared to a cb who can’t head, can’t defend physically et c?
with any luck we get Varane who appears to be priority and addresses all these issues

Given that all teams at some point will be caught out by pace, we have been as fallible as anyone else but as GB stated, it’s hardly been our Achilles Heel. Poor positioning has accounted for a lot of goals( Fulham, Spurs(h), Liverpool,) among others, poor defending down to strength has accounted for a few(Villarreal). Lack of cover where the midfield hasn’t tracked back. Ok you can point to the Spurs game(s) but Spurs also did that to City when Spurs were doing well.
So on balance I wouldn’t say Maguires lack of pace is an issue. Having a partner who is switched on and compliments him is what we need. If you look at Italy’s CB partnership they aren’t the quickest but they complimented each other, and have the midfield and attackers covering attacks. The biggest problem IMO is having a game strategy where we defend as a team and attack as one. You may put the inconsistency down to lack of the right personnel but it’s something that needs to be addressed
It's not just goals conceded through lack of pace; it's also
1. knock on effect on tactics. Inability to play any kind of high line at all.
2. United's defence don't look confident playing against quick forwards. They look like they're in permanent panic mode.
3. Yes, there are clear an obvious goals conceded due to lack of pace. Some of them are mundane the the opposition player getting to the ball first to shoot.
Plus the shear pointlessness of it: recruiting a 35 year old player who's never played in the PL. Madness.
Plenty of other targets for cheaper. Suspect it's Sky being bullshitters again though and that's the likely amount in Euros.Tweet

Ben White is thought to be keen on a move to Arsenal, Edu has held talks with White's reps at London Colney. Club hopeful of reaching a deal for both White and Lokonga at Anderlecht. Ødegaard unlikely, Maddison top of the club's wishlist. Interest in André Onana and Aaron Ramsdale.
Hmm yes that video looks unbiased.
That McGuire video is silly. You could make a bloopers reel of any player including Messi and Ronaldo
That's crazy money. He'll need to hand in a transfer request.Tweet

I'm assuming Sportwitness are a bad source?
