That was just Collymore saying Emery and Maguire would be a 'match made in heaven'.

I don't want Maguire at all, but the only tiny bit I might I'd agree with is he has turned Mings into someone who is highly trustworthy cutting out many of the same kinds of mental errors we see with Maguire. But I'd much sooner get the ready made stuff than have to rebuild Maguire's confidence.

I can see Slabhead going back to newly promoted Sheff Utd on loan, probably forever. Can't imagine anybody is stupid enough to part with money for him.

Maguire does make errors but it's not what has caused him to be sidelined by them, the bigger problem is how vulnerable he is to smart movement and pace.

Friend who support Manchester United said he on about 150 thousand and would want about 40 million,why would anybody pay that for someone unwanted at the club, not one for the confidence thing but it looks like it with him

The Plastics are looking to dump £60m Sancho too. Good luck with that one too.

Lol, seems an age ago they were all crowing because they thought Sancho was better than that other guy Man City paid £100 million for.

I'd 100% go for him if that was the price.

He's a great player, more talent than most players in the PL.

Still very young as well.

I'd go for him at £20m.

Typical Yorhshireman. He cost £73m, he plays for Man Utd and England, still only 23..SOLD!

They dropped some rick there. He would have gone there for definite too.

If we signed Maguire it would at least give Coady another chance for England.

I wouldn't see him as an Emery type at all. He just seems like an out and out winger, who doesn't do anything positive very often. We've already got one of those of our own.

We won't be spending £60m on Sancho or a bag of pork scratching on Maguire.  I very much doubt we'll be shopping in the inflated prices of the PL at all.

Wouldn't want either, especially Maguire.
