VVD is excellent and hopefully can get over his injury and be the same player he was. Konate is unproven. Matip is alright. Gomez is good.

You usually play Fabinho and Henderson to protect your defense. Individually, Uniteds defenders are better.
Hahah cmon mate.

Individually? Robbo is the best LB on earth. VVD is the best CB on earth. Varane like Konate is unproven in the PL. Matip and Gomez have won European Cups and Premier Leagues though, both class. AWB is such a limited footballer. TAA easy.

Varane has won 4 UCLs mate. Think he has proven more than Konate who was part of a Liepzig team who conceded 5 to United which included his direct opponent scoring 3.

All of your players are class and all of Uniteds are average eh. Never change jod

Yet you just said all of United players position for position are better than Liverpool's.

Out of your back four, only Varane has won anything of note and you only just signed him yesterday. I dont think AWB or Shaw are average. AWB poor going forward, excellent defensively. Shaw is a very good LB, just not on Robbo's level. Maguire I do think is average.

And yes Varane has won 4 UCL's but he's still unproven in England much like Konate. For what it's worth I dont even think Konate is our best option to partner VVD, that belongs to Joel Matip.
 
The only places he isn't highly rated are on here and twitter. He's better than all your cb's except VVD.
I'd have him behind all our CB's to be honest. I would not trade you any of Konate, Gomez or Matip for Maguire. VVD obvs on a completely different level.

And we wouldn’t trade you Maguire for Konate, Gomez or Matip. See how that works?
 
I just dont get what logic Bojan KantKick has for saying they are all individually better than our back four despite the fact that for the past three years we have conceded less goals and we have won the Super Cup, Club World Cup, Premier League and the Champions League with these guys.

There is just no evidence to back up the claims for United defenders.

Varane is an excellent buy though and certainly improves your defence.

I just feel pace is such a massive thing in the PL. Also being able to be quite nimble and quick on your feet. These are attributes that Maguire lacks. Matip, Gomez, VVD all super quick, the latter two particularly so. Having Maguire at the back would give me heart palpitations.

Maguire was very good last season and the defense collapsed when he was injured for a long period. Everyone has their opinions about certain players. I think the top 4 in England will all have solid back 4’s, that will be hard to unlock if they are all fit and available. Should be a great league race this season.

That's coaching mate. You lost Maguire and went to water. We lost someone levels above him and then two more of our best CB's and still conceded less than you. We were playing Henderson, Fabinho, Phillips, Rhys Williams, Kabak at CB. Conceded less.

Yes you signed Varane, rejoice, but that doesnt suddenly mean you have the best defence in the world.

AWB is a better defender than TAA imo. TAA much better going forward. Shaw and Robertson is breakeven for me. Shaw better last season but Robertson better over his career.

I hope VVD gets back to his best but there is no guarantee of that after an ACL and that much time out of the game. Varane and Maguire are better than your CB's ex in form VVD.

What United really need now is a DM like Fabinho/Fernandinho/Kante to protect them. That is the difference in the goals conceded stats for me.
 
that was an embarrassing read jod23
Your opinion is very outdated on Maguire.

Varane unproven? LOL.
Maguire worse than all your centrehalves? LOL.

Take you head out of the liverbird’s arse lol

That’s coaching mate, other sides had just as many injuries and didn’t completely bottle the first half of the season.

You were shit prior to some of these injuries also.

Maguire is overrated and underrated.

He's not the worst, pretty solid and does player a leaders role in defence
He's not the best either but he does have good PR though. Varane has the runs on the board but not been great the past few years. Wan Bissaka is good but limited. Shaw was the best LB in the league last season and might be this season.

Need more than 4 defenders though, that back 4 won't play together the 60 odd games United are in this season, and they're pretty weak in reserve.

Not in Greece.

It's like you dont even watch football. We were actually pretty good first half of the season and were top at Christmas. Came crashing down quickly with a poor run of results where we lost 5 on the trot. Then recovered to win 8 of our last 10 and finish 3rd.

And yes absolutely coaching. Klopp did an amazing job last season.

No it's not. My opinion is just that, mine. It's impossible for it to be outdated as it's an opinion.

Also I dont know when Maguire got quicker and improved his turning circle. I think he has improved since United bought him but has glaring weaknesses and not the greatest of football brains. Again im just saying he is average, he's not shit, he's serviceable and does a job but he's certainly not elite.

Yes Varane is unproven in the PL. Which is what I said. He has never played in the PL. So that's correct. Varane has been hot and cold the last couple of years. Absolute quality when at the top of his game though.

And yes I would not trade Maguire for Gomez or Matip. His weaknesses wouldnt play well in our set up with the high line and pressing game we play. You absolutely need pace at the back to play for Liverpool. United sit far deeper and play on the counter and that can mask Maguire's short comings.

I agree AWB is a better defender but not an overall better RB. AWB is class if it was 1995 but the full back position has evolved and his ability going forward is so limited. Shaw needs more credits in the bank before you can call it breaking even with Robbo who's been the best LB in the league for about three years now. Despite our up and down season last season, he was probably the only bloke with Salah who kept up his excellent levels.

Agree you need a DM to better shield them. Could do with a decent GK too as DDG is cooked and Henderson is ok at best. Levels from a bloke like Ali.
