Harry Maguire has decided he would rather join Manchester City than Manchester United - but is still open to a move to Old Trafford.

Maguire is wanted by both Manchester United and Manchester City this transfer window.

And ESPN claim Maguire wants to join City over United - despite the Red Devils’ failed £70million bid.

However, the player is said to be open to moving to Old Trafford if United are able to agree a fee with Leicester.

He's supposedly a Man Utd fan isn't he?
 
Manchester United have been offered one of three Juventus players in exchange for Paul Pogba.

That’s according to Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport, who claim Juventus are prepared to swap either Alex Sandro, Blaise Matuidi or Paulo Dybala for the French international.

The Serie A champions have already done good business this summer with Adrien Rabiot and Aaron Ramsey both added to their ranks on free transfers.

But the return of Pogba is high on their list of priorities and the player himself has already admitted he’s keen on leaving Old Trafford.
yan Kent’s potential move away from Anfield has reportedly been delayed as a result of a potential first-team opportunity.

A report from Herald Scotland claimsthat Liverpool will allow their key attacking players to enjoy extra time on holiday this summer.

As a result of their participation in the African Cup of Nations and the Copa America respectively, Mo Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane could all be given extra time off to recover.
Liverpool are interested in Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos as Jurgen Klopp eyes the club’s ‘next Xabi Alonso’, according to reports in Spain.

The playmaker was expected to leave the Bernabeu this summer, as Madrid look to balance the books, after so far splashing out almost £300m on Eden Hazard, Luka Jovic and Eder Militao.

Ceballos, who has been linked with AC Milan, has just finished international duty with Spain’s Under-21s during which he helped his side lift the European Championships.

Both Arsenal and Spurs have also been linked with a move for the former Betis star, with the former apparently happy to pay his £45m (€50m) asking price.
 
If we are taking the red glasses off:

Robertson:
Top 5 left fulls in europe.
Jordi Alba has to be on the list imo.
Alaba has to be on the list
sandro has to be on the list
Kurzawa (PSG has to be close)
Robertson should be on same list


some people seem to want to have luis at atletico or marcello at real or alonso at cheslea or ghoulam at napoli...


On Firmino... A false 9 should at least arrive in the box for me. Firmino doesn't do it enough. he allows salah and mane do this. He's almost an advanced 8 or a real 10 than a false 9. he works best for me almost on half way line

Who is Sandro? Alaba not sure anymore tbh, can’t say I see enough of Bayern to comment but don’t hear much of him these days. Again, kurwaza, really?

I dont think anyone even at chelsea is putting Alonso anywhere near a top list, he’s not even the best left back at chelsea!

firm is a tricky one, when on form he is a brilliant foil for Salah and mane and I don’t think we’re the same team without him. However I don’t think he’s consistent enough to be up in the world class bracket. Goals wise he contributes just about enough to go with his work rage and link up but if the link up isn’t there, he’s not enough of a goal threat like say Kane or lukaku (was) to be able to get by.

I believe that would be Alex Sandro, Juventus.

Kurwaza is ****

So.....

If rumours are to be believed.....I know, I know....

  • We’re in for a top class forward
  • We’re in for a classy midfielder
  • We’re in for quite an expensive LB for the bench
  • We’re offloading Lovren so surely we’ll need a CB - a 17 year old kid won’t be ready...
There’s £200m right there.

Who’s leaving?
  • Ings £20m (done)
  • Lovren £20m
  • Clyne £20m (he’s not a bad back up tbh - he must have really pissed JK off
  • ???
We’re gunna need to sell a lot more <yikes>

Still think there’ll be a huge change for us....just a feeling.
