The list of players we have been linked with to this point (apart from Laporte) have been a bit meh. I'm not expecting big names, huge fees, but I think we could be a lot more savvy in how we spend our apparently limited funds, especially now that we have a manger who will play younger players. But, maybe this is all just early window bullshit, too.

You can't take Lenglet last summer, good CB having a hard time at Barca and then turn your nose up at Maguire who's exactly the same at Utd, but a better player. Makes no sense.

Don’t think Lenglet was the answer most of us were wanting. I certainly hope we don’t take up the option.

I’m sure the first thing Ange said after signing was “get me Harry Maguire”

From Laporte to Maguire…..

Wonder how we arrived at Maguire with a data driven approach, surely his stats are pretty bad?

Hopefully he is bottom of a long list.
Depends which data Danny boy is putting in, and which data he's taking out I guess? A player once valued at 80m now rated at peanuts might be getting those algorithms tingling.

If we are in the market for an English ball playing CB I would much prefer Adam Webster from Brighton.

Oh no an available home grown centre back better than all but one of our own, which also happens to be our weakest position, let me be instantly ruthless and critical.

I was a big fan of him when he was at Hull and was really annoyed that Leicester got him. Whilst he isnt as bad as he has been at Man United, i think he is more suited to a three than a two. I wouldnt want him now.

If you swipe right on a Laporte but a Maguire shows up for the date?

Levy isn't about to catfish me again. Little bald ****.

Must be such a laugh being a journo and dangling these worms in the water. Talksport levels of triggering going on here.

A better player than his reputation suggests (it's not a surprise United have frequently been hammered without him in the team, put it that way) and I think under Conte he might've been a good signing, but can't see it under Ange. For his wages in particular.

Still fully think he'll go to another PL team - Villa or someone - and show that he is still a very good player when dickheads aren't hounding him every week.
