Aye, too true - wish the bloody window was just finished.They're clearly taking the piss, noone on this forum has a hand in United's transfer dealings for feck sake.

I agree with you, but I believe that this is where it's a bit unfair to OGS. He isn't really involved in negotiating transfers, and can't be expected to know about all the options on the market, and what a specific player might cost until serious negotiations take place.I think it's better the opposite way. Let a manager prove himself with (relatively) little, then you back him with more steadily until you have 100% faith in him in the transfer market. Then he can have any funds he wants.
Yeah but he isn't "premier league proven" so therefore he must be bad and not worth signing.He's regarded as one of the best CBs in a major European League at 20. He marshalled a defence that conceded the least amount of goals in said league and also completely nullified Lewandowski when RB Leipzig played Bayern which ended goalless.
He plays in a team that likes to press high and is accustomed to playing in a high line. Defends space behind him expertly due to him being lightening quick. He's already showing a very high level now in one of the best leagues in Europe.
No but we can't have a team filled with 19-21 year olds. It isn't unlikely that we could start a match this season without a single outfield player born Before 1993 (DDG, Shaw, VNL, Tuanzebe, AWB - McTominay, Andreas, Pogba - Martial, Greenwood and Rashford) and an average age of .. 23 ?Yeah but he isn't "premier league proven" so therefore he must be bad and not worth signing.

Seek it out haha take a day offIf you don't care about my opinion, why did you seek my post out and respond to it?
What method are you using to say he's worth £60m but not £80m?
Nonsense. He’s a good defender and a club like Leicester is his level. Same as Jonny Evans.Stop fishing, not in any world would this be the case.
Leicester is not here to fix your mistakes in the transfer market.
They're clearly taking the piss, noone thinks Leicester would take Jones, noone on this forum has a hand in United's transfer dealings so there's noone who can "fish" for feck sake.
Nonsense. He’s a good defender and a club like Leicester is his level. Same as Jonny Evans.
Don`t dispute he is good enough, its his injury record that is of more concern - same cannot be said for Jonny, so that is not really a great comparison.Phil Jones is definitely good enough for Leicester or any top 10 team. He is a decent-good defender. Only problem is fitness.

I have doubts about Maguire. If we sign him for 80m. How much do Utd actually improve? - We'll still have Matic protecting him, losing runners, looking like he's got a piano on his back. Yes our defence is poor and we need a CB but I don't see Utd spending 80+ on Maguire and then investing in other areas with 10 days left. Maguire will improve the defence but he won't improve Utd substantially unless we we make improvements in CM and DM.New title time:
BOOM!
Harry misses Training.

You don't know he's ill though do you, you're guessing and putting two and two together, just like Sky.surprise surprise, Sky run with the click bait BS story anyone with an actual once of professional pride immediately says he is ill, these presenters must get paid a fortune to stomach spouting this much crap on TV
Yeah, he also isn't anywhere near as good in the air, which is a large reason we're getting Maguire.Ake doesn't excite me at all. He's potential, but Maguire is more ready to come in and do the job.

If he improves our defence he improves Utd. Don't see how you can have one without the other.Maguire will improve the defence but he won't improve Utd substantially unless we we make improvements in CM and DM.
Might be true too.He's sick apparently.
Sick of LeicesterHe's sick apparently.
Anyone reported that he is ill?surprise surprise, Sky run with the click bait BS story anyone with an actual once of professional pride immediately says he is ill, these presenters must get paid a fortune to stomach spouting this much crap on TV
sky dont own skybetSky trying to get people betting on Sky Bet, he misses training haha who gives a shit, probably ill!
We seriously linked with Ake, didn't Bournemouth concede a shedload last year and he was a main fixture in that defence, if we can't do better than Ake then we are in the shit!
Yeah, and Lukaku was injured. Its standard to say a player is injured/sick before a transfer just in case the deals falls through for whatever reason.surprise surprise, Sky run with the click bait BS story anyone with an actual once of professional pride immediately says he is ill, these presenters must get paid a fortune to stomach spouting this much crap on TV
They're not the majority shareholder but they do have a substantial stake (excuse the betting pun) and therefore a financial interest in Skybet doing well.sky dont own skybet

Our local journos saying he is ill, all Sky seemed to have jumped on is that he missed training, not the reason whyYou don't know he's ill though do you, you're guessing and putting two and two together, just like Sky.
Sick of Leicester
I think they sold their remaining stake in the company not so long ago, I might be wrong though.They're not the majority shareholder but they do have a substantial stake (excuse the betting pun) and therefore a financial interest in Skybet doing well.
