I didn’t say anything about pace.
[Castles] Maguire has indicated to #mufc that he would like an English-born/speaker defender
- Thread starter MyOnlySolskjaer
- Start date
Definitely a story written to fit a stereotype.
How many of the best club partnerships since the 90s / Bosman have been two players from the same country? Surprisingly few from what I can remember.

No way Maguire has indicated that. He plays in a team full of international player of which he is the captain. I don't think he will even consider making this kind of request to Ole.
But if he has then do you people reckon he should be the captain?

Now where have I heard that before ...
Lindelof speaks fluent English though?
See post #76
Whats there to get? You look locally and across British Isles. If you cant get the target(s) you want domestically then you look abroad.
Most of the critics on here wont have listened to the podcast, but judge anyway. What Castles said about Murtough was interesting in particular.
Personally i like the pair and the podcast. Been listening for years. They often break news first and rarely sensationalise. But go ahead with the bashing. I've said my piece.
To be fair, our main targets were Sancho & Grealish.
I couldn't ever imagine caring about where a player is from, it's their talent that matter. You see plenty of idiots on here saying crap like "don't want anyone from Argentina!!!" due to stuff that happened with players over ten years ago. It's beyond pathetic.
It might have been said in jest off the cuff, anything. The press will twist anything to suit a sentationalist story. Terry in 2006 was asked could we win WC he said we got a good chance on TV. In the Sun next day Terry were definitely going to win WC and stuff around that what was never said. That's just a mild example as I saw the TV interview
If McGarry said it then it's more than likely absolute pony and not worth discussing.
Haaland and Bruno too.
Ah yes McGarry loves that line: 'You heard it here first'
But did you really? And if you did how many other stories did you also hear which weren't even close to being true?
If true then maybe he should look to join Burnley.
Or, Duncan is lying so don't let it fuel your hatred
You could tell Castles thought it was nonsense while McGarry was saying it. McGarry also reckons United see Maguire "as a typical English defender who isn't great on the ball so they want to sign someone who is better in that department" (to paraphrase)... Castles had to step in at that point...
I’m of the same opinion, has to be BS.No way is that true
Announce we've signed Victor Lintel, teach him to say alright mate in a Sheffield accent.
Slabhead and Lintelhead with Jughead as backup

Title should really be amended. It’s obviously bullshit
That podcast is self aggrandizing nonsense. Self proclaimed transfer experts, tactical experts and sporting directors.
Surprised no one's offered them a job to run a whole club top to bottom, the way they talk with such assertiveness on topics.

It's weird to see McGarry on some sort of ITK podcast, when he used to just be on BBC Five Live as the most clueless know nothing pundit. He's never got much insight of note and seems to pull shite out of his arse more than Castles, which is quite impressive.
Can we just lock this thread
Surprised that Lindelof can’t speak English. Bloody Johnny Foreigners eh Harry? 
During the West Ham game, Maguire did well to get AWB in line when he was making mistakes. Maguire is taking on the captain's responsibilities to command the team. Other insinuations are unwarranted.
“The Tom Brady option”
Hopefully next year he will have an English speaking cell mate
It most likely BS but I wouldn't rule it out if it's true.
I have done it myself in Master League, and the majority voted for Brexit anyway.

That's fine. As anticipated the rebirth of Phil Jones is imminent.
If Harry wants someone who is:
English speaking
English born
White
It can easily be taken for racism...
I don't get it ? Does lindelof not speak English or something ?
The bald one is creating stories out of thin air again
People giving this story oxygen is baffling. Our fanbase can be annoyingly thick at times.
It's not surprising, people need a reason to have a go at our players or management. So it's easy to see why twat like Castles gets enough clicks for their stories.
Even if he did secretly think that, does anybody believe he would actually say it, let alone say it loud enough for it to leak to the press. It would destroy team morale if he openly said he only wanted English players around him.
Besides, we've all heard Maguire and Lindelof interviewed. I know who my money would be on to pass an English exam.
