Despite all the jokes, he'll be very good for Moyes. Exactly the type of manager that Harry needs.
Maguire | he stays!

He'll be good for West Ham. Even with Rice gone, they'll be a compact team who will play fairly deep and utilise the counter attack well. He won't be expected to be on the ball so much and play through a press. They have some good transition players, like Bowen, who he'll be expected to hit it long to, more often than not.
If they also sign Alvarez, along with McTominay or another like JWP/Gallagher, then I think they'll actually be a really tough team to break down next season. They'll also be able to physically overpower a lot of teams, especially in midfield.

He played his best for us when we played a deep block under Ole. I really do think he’ll be fantastic at West Ham.
I can see him making a move to Chelsea or a Spurs in the next 1/2 seasons as a cheap option with experience
Should be done by Friday.
Goodbye sweet prince x
Best news this window
I think that's pretty much spot on. With Onana, Martinez, Shaw and Varane (and a right back), we want to sit higher up the pitch as we have the speed to cover, ball playing ability and sweeper-keeper. It's transformative. Having Maguire as one of the defenders is asking for trouble as any manager with any sense will target him for a ball over the top for quick players to chase. It's why Terry was terrible under Villas Boas but reverted to world class the season after - a high line does not suit all types of defenders, just as a low block does not suit all types either.
Let's get the thread title changed ASAP.
Agree. We are not in dire need of selling now, even if we could use some funds for more players and getting rid of high wages and negative attention. We are talking about selling our 4/5th choice CB and backup midfielder. On the other hand West Ham are in dire need of new players with little time to find suitable players before the season starts.
The Moyes redemption arc begins.
Think you are right - sometimes letting players go when the stock is high is the right thing to do from a team perspective. Is that player key for the team, is he going to improve further, or will the team benefit from investing that money elsewhere.
With Henderson there was probably discussions about him becoming first choice, which he screwed up with that idiotic interview of his - what was he thinking? Few managers want those types of players... But when that was done, they should have just sold him straight away.
Deal worth 30m? Didn't we reject that one a few days ago? Or did the journalists conveniently forget to add addons and salary packages when there's an outgoing Utd player?

Just reported on sky sports news too.
Great news for all involved
I actually think he will do well for them - pressure off and don't they play with a back 3?

It's a good deal if we get a replacement in that isn't called Evans.
Finally 
"Mr. Murtough somebody finally bought Harry Maguire"

Right this second, just got tickets for Queens of the Stone Age at the same time I've seen this. What a minute!
This would be the best news of the window.. 30m is fantastic piece of business.
Think so, and I hope he does. I also hope United supporters welcome him when he comes to Old Trafford. The abuse he's had to take has been embarrassing.
Likes of Paddy Power might have something as specific as that, but you'll definitely get him as a scorer fir/last/anytime as usual.
Moyes is going to earn himself a statue outside OT at this point and not for the reasons he thought he would 10 years ago.
Excellent excellent news. Well done United team.
fecking hell! Didn't expect anyone to cough up what we'd ask for him this summer at all.
This is my worry. I’m not arsed about Maguire leaving as such, but we need to reinvest the money on a long term solution to Varane.

Bro!!!
I want my acknowledgment!! You told me this wasn’t going to happen. I didn’t forget you

It's amazing. I'd nearly forgive him!
GET IN!!!
Set piece goal against us confirmed.
Need a thread title update.
It's the best for all involved.
Maguire really isn't a bad player but he can't fit into the Ten Hag system and he's done as a United player. He'll do well for West Ham and for Moyes.
I wish him all the best.
End of a (banter) era.

Will be great if he bangs in a few crucial headers against some of our rivals after the battering he’s taken the past couple of years. No doubt he’ll get one goal all year and it’ll be against us.
Welcome Todibo
If true, it brings our total sale proceeds to c.55m - that’s an entire Mount
Just replacing "rejected" with "accepted" would do the trick.
He'll need it after getting caught in possession and out of position for the two goals we'll score against them
