I dont care if its a popular opinion or not:

Harry Maguire would do an excellent job in a Conte system.

posted on 6/12/22

In Italy maybe. The problem isn't the system is that he's just not very good at playing against pace and there's a lot of it in the PL

posted on 6/12/22

Thats not true though, he just isn't good at playing in a high line (no better or worse than Dier is) and at Conte he'd be able to play deep enough that the game would be in front of him.

Yeah they're both slow and immobile

I actually like Maguire. He made the wrong choice going United when they was in a bad way.

He was so good at Leicester

Excellent is a stretch. He would do a job. But then again most defenders who have faults would be decent in a back 3. Lenglet for example. Wouldn't trust him in a two but in a three, he is ok.

Maguire has an error in him like Dier. Fook him.

They paid that much for him largely cos of his England performances IMO. Yeah he stood out at Leicester but not 80m. You're forgiven a lot more there for the odd dodgy moment

Man Utd always over pay by £20m-£30m on every big purchase

Yeah he was at people let media opinion sway their minds quite easily. The mistakes he largely makes is when he gets turned and in the Dier role he'd be excellent and in the Davies role I'm not sure how adept he is at being aggressive - but the on-ball aspect of him he'd excel at.

I don’t think they overplayed due to England performances.

I think they over payed because they are United.

You've got to have recovery pace in the Conte system as a wide CB or it'll all fall apart. I think he'd be a minor upgrade on Dier

posted on 6/12/22

Ben Davies has frequently been recorded as being the slowest member of the Spurs squad so about recovery pace, that isnt true.

posted on 6/12/22

Fair Edin. Though just because he's not good enough doesn't mean we should play Maguire there

posted on 6/12/22

Maguire would be good enough for us in our current team (& managerial requirements), in fact I'd say he would be excellent.

Under Poch's system he would suck - so it would be quite a short term signing.

posted on 6/12/22

If he played like he did for England, sure. He'd be good. But his head clearly went in the league. Maybe he's been found out or maybe he just needs a change of scenery? Either way he's a slightly better Dier IMO. Ok but not what we should be looking at

posted on 6/12/22

We need to stop talking about players who have an error in them like Sanchez, Dier and Davies.

How can anyone bring up a player with a nickname slabhead. The guy has been a disaster.

posted on 6/12/22

Ahh yes, having an amusing nickname is a sign of a good or a bad player. Good commentary

posted on 6/12/22

His head is fookin massive tbf. I'm minded of the guy whose eyes were offside. Absolute waste of money in the end

posted on 6/12/22

His head is grate, just thought about how good he'd be at corners under Vito. Could have him bagging double figures.

Forget his nickname. How much do you think Utd would sell him for bearing in mind how much he cost them?

He ain't worth it.

posted on 6/12/22

I never said he was worth it or not, I just said he'd do an excellent job in our team currently.

Excellent job. Amazing. He has too many scares to play in our defence, which in history is known to be fragile.

But hey ho, old Edin thinks he would be excellent 😂.
