Just seen on Sky Sports that City and United are after Maguire but Leicester want 80m. Now obv he is nowhere near worth that money but I am feeling a little smug that my Oct 2017 prediction was on point...

I think if man utd buy him they will quickly discover he is no better than Jones or Smalling.

I think he's better on the ball than them, but I don't think his defending is any higher quality.

He's an upgrade on both, no doubt about it but it would have been a huge upgrade had the signing came two years ago for 20m.

When Man U bought Jones he was meant to be the best defender since Rio. I honestly think if Maguire wasn't English nobody would be mentioning him.

Maguire costing more than VVD it appears. Panic stations at Old Trafford.

That was announced when the new contract was signed, hardly news or a mess.

It's quite interesting how the media and fans would report the maguire signing, it will be certainly seen differently if he went to city rather than united,

Was it? Right. Such a mess at the moment I can't keep track.

Slaven to WBA then, @Hugh Jass... I'd say that's quite the coup?!

If it happens (we have form for getting to this stage then cocking it up) then I’m excited. It’ll either be brilliant or a complete car crash.

Him versus Bielsa should be fun at any rate.

How would it be different? I think it would be pretty much the same.

Not yet. Koulibaly a better option for you imo. Still time to dodge it.

United are at a low ebb and got bailly, smalling and Jones. We would take anyone at the minute and it would be an improvement.

Bailly isn't the worst. The other two are the pits.

Bailly the worst CB at the club for me. What usually happens is bailly goes chasing balls into midfield and loses it, great big gap and a team scores and smalling gets blame.

Not looking like Wales will be there (please Giggs go) so may give it a miss. Did 6 matches in Euro 96 which was fun.

I’ve put in for three grand’s worth of tickets, safe in the knowledge I’ll get barely any.

I wasn't sure how it worked. Say, I applied for all Dublin and London games and for some weird reason got tickets for all of the ones I applied for but could only make one of them (Glasto etc), am I able to just purchase for one of the games or am I obliged to purchase all or none?

It's all or none but they have a resale platform you can sell the ones you don't want at a later date.
