That’s an eye watering figure, especially as the rise is really based on a few games at the World Cup. If he had been sold in May it would have been less than half the figure that is being quoted.

If van Dijk is worth £75m, Maguire is worth over £50m, given that he's a few years younger.

He’s not in the same class as Van Dijk

Spot on Van Dijk is a far better player.

I really like Maguire the way he plays. He loves taking the ball out but you can tell he has no skill on the ball. 

Against the better teams he would be torn a new one as he is slow. Sure he has to carry that giant nut around!

Apparently they got 3 weeks off after the WC so he only arrives back on the Monday before the EPL starts.

But these days the top players keep themselves fit on holidays.
They don’t drink 12 pints a day on their days off anymore.
They are more likely to be in the gym twice a day.

I’m sure they’ll all be playing that first weekend. The EPL starts slowly IMO. They should have 3 fixtures over the first 9 days to get into it.

Is he better than Stones? Or Stones when he was sold for 50m?

Lolz.
 
In fairness though I'd imagine £60m of that is for his disturbingly large head - freak show stuff. £5m or so is for the actual defender attributes.

Maguire is just a slightly improved Jones, albeit younger & minus the gurning. 
He’s nowhere near the player VVD is. 
United’s transfer list/strategy is very questionable

Bayern are going for 7 in a row and are 1/8 to win the league

Juve are going for 8 in a row and are 4/9 to win the league

PSG have won 5 out of the last 6 and are 1/9 to win the league

The Spanish league is more mixed but Barca have won 7 out of the last 10. 

Nobody has retained the EPL in the last 10 years.

If this transfer goes through at that price, it will be one of the most bizarre transfers of all time. I like Maguire myself, he plays very positively for a defender, but he's at exactly the level he should be at Leicester. He just isn't a decent enough step up on what's already there. If they sign him, they won't be able to move him off the books for years. The transfer and contract policy at the club in the last few years has been nothing short of desperate.

I think the Maguire story was put out as a smokescreen by United and Alderweireld is their real target

I see he is 8/11 to be at United by close of the transfer window and 7/4 Spurs

There's no doubting though that City are as well placed as possible to do it. They will simply wipe the floor with nearly every cannon fodder team in the PL this season. So it's up to the other sides to do similar and drop very few points in those 20 or so fixtures against the bottom 10 or so sides. Liverpool look the only ones capable of anything near that at present. Spurs possibly, but hard to see them being as consistent.

I could see Liverpool hit close to 90 points and very possibly not win the PL title. The myth of the PL being a league where every team is capable of beating every other is well and truly bust at this point.

Very possibly. Hard to know why they don't just push on though if that deal is on the table. Is the haggling over a few million with Levy really worth a player of that quality coming in so late in the pre season? The difference in quality between Alderweireld and Maguire is absolutely massive.
