Wrong thread?He's crap. Never been impressed with him. He's slow too.

How did EtH treat him out of curiosity, he has been one of the 1st choice CB's since EtH arrived including the start of this season, so I am curious to this treatment you speak ofVarane is not the guy who stirs up drama. If he feels disrespected by the manager then he will simply leave in the summer. But a lot can be said on how ETH handled him because Varane is the last guy you would get into a fight. I've seen so many games where Pep with 10 man down was more threatening, ETH is out of depth at this moment. He's not elite.
Seems Muppetiers were right about this thenRumours going around that there are issues behind the scenes.
He certainly wasn't at Leicester.That's a good/interesting point. Maguire always seemed like he might be the type to organise but maybe he isn't? Would explain a lot of the terrible displays he's been involved in over the years because he's usually paired up with partners who aren't organisers either. Lindelof is quiet as a mouse too. Which was all compounded by DDG also being far too quiet. I was hoping we'd sign a keeper who might speak up a bit more. Not seen that from Onana yet. The lack of leaders at the back might be one of our biggest problems.
it’s probably not his age, it’s his ability to stay fit that is an issue. Otherwise, he is better than any other defender at the club. An elite defender. Just injury prone, which is terribleEveryone keep pointing Varane's age while Maguire is of the same age as him![]()
Is there a list of what type of injury he suffers? Reoccuring or different ones?it’s probably not his age, it’s his ability to stay fit that is an issue. Otherwise, he is better than any other defender at the club. An elite defender. Just injury prone, which is terrible
And his passing with both feetNot really.
Evans best ability now is his organisational skills. He's always been a talker and leader of the defensive line. Varane never had to do it, he always had Ramos. Maguire has never had to do it either he had Dawson at Hull and Evans at Leicester doing it.
So, you have 2 lads who can't/don't talk, or organise and lead a defensive line that cost near 200m on the pitch. You're asking for trouble.
Evans maybe, but not Maguire. Varane lives off his reputation. You actually watch him play and, ever since he's joined, his weaknesses have been blatantly obvious. He's not had a period of good form for us that Maguire had before becoming a meme.He certainly wasn't at Leicester.
Like the poster you replied to said, Evans was doing the talk. Still kind of mad that both of them are above Varane in the pecking order. If even he's fragile, he's still ten times the defender both Evans and Maguire are, and it's not like he's 40. Not playing against Man City seems to have started something between Ten Hag and him.
Didn't he turn up to training the day after?
I agree. Really weird how hyped he got last years. Probably more about apperance and profile than what he did for us. Not better than an average PL defender on the ball. And he is not very agile anymore either.Varane lives off his reputation. You actually watch him play and, ever since he's joined, his weaknesses have been blatantly obvious.
I hope not. Seems to have fitness issues at the age of 30??? Should be still at his best. Consider Ramos?Almost like Laurent Blanc. Signed him when he was on his way out.
Probably because most players who join this circus of a club quickly become demotivated and give up.Evans maybe, but not Maguire. Varane lives off his reputation. You actually watch him play and, ever since he's joined, his weaknesses have been blatantly obvious. He's not had a period of good form for us that Maguire had before becoming a meme.
Evans has been very underrated since he returned. Sort of like how he was when he was with us the first time tooEvans maybe, but not Maguire. Varane lives off his reputation. You actually watch him play and, ever since he's joined, his weaknesses have been blatantly obvious. He's not had a period of good form for us that Maguire had before becoming a meme.
He's been dropped because Maguire is playing better than him. No more to it than that.Seems Muppetiers were right about this then
So often the simplest explanation is the correct one.He's been dropped because Maguire is playing better than him. No more to it than that.
He was very good/important in our best run of form as a team last season.Evans maybe, but not Maguire. Varane lives off his reputation. You actually watch him play and, ever since he's joined, his weaknesses have been blatantly obvious. He's not had a period of good form for us that Maguire had before becoming a meme.

Whenever one of our players goes into decline, or just through a period of poor form, a load of inverse Nostradamuses appear on here to tell us how they always knew said player was crap. It’s incredibly tiresome.He was very good/important in our best run of form as a team last season.
Watch his press conference. No player will like being dropped.Tweet

From what I heard, Varane told Ten Hag he no longer wanted to be considered for selection after Ten Hag said that he preferred Evans and Maguire for tactical reasons against City. You could tell he didn’t really want to come on tonight. You can’t blame him really.
Looks like its no longer under wrapsNo it was kept under wraps
Yeah. The message it sends is very loudNot in the team again.
Must be off in Jan
Three players are hardly everyone, don't be dramatic. If Varane can't handle competition and expects to be in the first team no matter what, that is his problem.Eventually when you seems to have a problem with basically everyone, maybe you’re the problem?
