Hes been one of our best players since Christmas. W T F are you watching.

He’s been bang average and had missed plenty of football also. Not sure what you are watching.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
LOL

Process, I totally agree with you.

Hes actually been less than bang average.

But hes still been one of our best players this year.

So the OP was right then?

RR made a very valid point in that the criticism Maguire received was far worse than any redemption.

I disagree with Process, I’d rather have Maguire as it stands. Varane’s injuries are only going to get worse. Maguire recently has performed as a solid (not immense) Premier League CB. He doesn’t suit the modern game for a team wanting to play a high line as he has no pace and turns like a lorry.

You're better than this, SatNav
----------------------------------------------------------------------

And in games per season Maguire currently averages 35 GPS.

Yeah, some players get away with murder, whilst others are very harshly judged.

Maguire and Casemiro for example.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Casemiro has been easily our worst player this season.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Whaaaat?

Have you forgotten about Onana getting us eliminated from the Champs League, or Rashford playing like a League 2 player?

Maguire is slow, clumsy, and indecisive on the ball.

Yes, Varane should go, but that's not good reason to keep Maguire.

If all fit, what are our CB options currently, from 1st choice to last?

Shaw is usually our first choice LB, Varane is gone (Evans probably as well), so the core we're left with is Martinez, Maguire, Lindelof and Kambawala.

If we sign a CB to play alongside Martinez, we could only lose one of Maguire or Lindelof. Which will leave us with New CB, Martinez, Maguire or Lindelof and Kambawala with Shaw an extra option.

Maguire is 31 and Lindelof is 29. Out of the two, I'd sell Maguire first due to age and wages, get in another CB next season and sell Lindelof then. We also need a LB that can stay fit and gives us the same level as Shaw when he's at his best.
