You're a funny guy. Your reading comprehension fails you, and instead of admitting so and moving on peacefully, here you are trying to angle out an argument
Obviously Lindelof's the focus there, but considering he's 6 foot-odd I'll never get over how rubbish Wan-Bissaka is in the air.
I just noted that you don’t understand at all what kind of player Varane is.You're a funny guy. Your reading comprehension fails you, and instead of admitting so and moving on peacefully, here you are trying to angle out an argument
anyway, I'm in celebratory mood. Varane's arrival means less Lindelof and everyone should be happy about that
Don't forget the shorts and socks
Yeah. Imagine getting to a cup final and losing it due to the keeper.
People keep linking him to Real on here and yet no one in the media is at all. Perez doesn't want him. They won't waste Mbappe money on him. That's their soul focus.
He is. He has the same weaknesses in that he can often be a bit passive. However, both read the game phenomenally well and have excellent recovery pace to make up for errors and cover their partner. The reason I'm so hopeful for this deal is that in the same way, Vidic complemented Rio with his aggressive play and aerial game, the same can be applied to Maguire.
Perez is too smart for that. They’ll prioritize Camavinga and Mbappe.
I have not spoken definitively on what kind of player Varane is. Simply that he has qualities that could be attributed to both Rio or Vidic, and this was in the context of someone saying he’d be our new Rio and Maguire our new Vidic. Now if you’re saying that along with your poor reading comprehension you can’t contextualise things then so be it.

Unlikely he's that tall, online heights are notoriously unreliable.
IDK if I'd call Maguire aggressive.
At that point we'd surely put out a 'deal agreed' update as we did with Sancho, rather than wait a few days for the official signing announcement?
He’s aggressive in the sense that he’s a proactive physical defender. He’s not a nasty cnut like Mings but he’s definitely defends aggressively
@MyOnlySolskjaer better have the final draft of the Varane performance thread ready.
My guess would be that they will do it at around the same time.
Not only that, for someone who has an extremely good judge of distance and timing for tackling, how that doesn't translate to heading?
If he was the one that was doing it maybe. But it's been Murtough handling these matters as our Director of Football. That's where the praises should be going.
He's a front food defender no doubt about that. He is dominant aerially as we all know but he also regularly tries to intercept or step onto the CF/ST before or as they receive the ball. One of the reasons he gives away fouls is his aggressive style where if he gets turned he has little choice but to bring them down. Not sure what your definition of aggressive is unless you want reckless like Bailly.
Yeah he was all over this story.
Black?
Exactly, well put!
Agree Spoons.
Someone like Ramos or Vidic. Maguire is a bit tame for me.
Hmm, makes sense. He's somewhere in the middle in the spectrum of aggressiveness, not as little as Lindelof, not as pro-active as Vidic.
Tbf if you are waiting for Vidic levels of aggressiveness then you'll be waiting forever. It's a shame as I loved Vidic but they don't make them like that anymore. Magure is as aggressive as most modern CBs around.
I was just reading some comments on Valdes on the other thread then decided to quickly skim Wikipedia. His trophies were not joke.
They won't even take him on a free. The wages he would demand would even put them off. There is PSG and of course, Juventus always lurking around.

Yup, he's a bit of a Rio lite.
Im optimistic that with Varane, De Geas big weakness of not coming out will not matter as much. He may even get back to his best.
