He stopped a thief who pinched her bag and she rewarded him with lunch. It's about character; you have it or you don't. Are you suggesting that Maguire wouldn't have done the same thing in the same situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too slow; milk turns quicker. Anyway, he wasn't in the same situation; he was playing at Big Time Charlie in Mykonos or wherever it was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised a man of your intelligence is saying that Lindelof is a better player than Maguire because he happened to help out a granny. I think there's enough evidence of Lindelof being a better player without using such an odd comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champers Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 I was comparing the character of the two men. One has it, one doesn't. Do you think Fergie would have allowed Harry to remain as captain after turning up in court in a t-shirt, shorts and a baseball cap? OGS did. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find this endless fascination people have with the Mykonos incident amusing. He's hardly the first English lad to go on holiday and get in trouble after a few drinks.

BarraMarra Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Last 2 games mistakes cost us big Shaw handball in extra time 3 points were dropped, and Sunday De Gea howler cost us 3 points and possibly a top 4 place if they don't cut out the bad passing, mistakes, and god forbid stop trying to play out from the back. One more shocker and Liverpool will replace us for a top 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And get arrested and convicted!! He is a convicted criminal. Any other player would have had the captaincy taken away. At the s time he said he was going to appeal. Has he forgot to do it or was it baloney coming out of his mouth and he was indeed guilty 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he just had to spend a night in the cells after getting pissed up and causing trouble. The fact is he went on to have a long and successful career at United. Which Maguire won't. But it won't be because of anything that happened in Greece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedArmy Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Chill out boyz - I Would like to get involved but have decided to refrain from making any comment - I agree & disagree with some of these comments today, but lets have it right - Maguire certainly seems to lack character, both on & off the pitch - I've been watching United a long long time, & he's certainly up there in terms of being Sh ite - IMO, get rid asap. On a brighter note, i see our boy Diallo banged in another goal for Sunderland yesterday to confirm their play off spot - Love this kid - He's better than Antony. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's looking great but whenever I watch these clips it looks like the defenders in the championship are stuck in mud. But I agree it's a positive.

champers Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Shoretire scored in Bolton's last match at Bristol Rovers and reportedly had a good game. He has been a bit underwhelming but he has undoubted talent; just a bit of inexperience and needs to get stronger physically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedArmy Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Back to winning ways, with 3 vital points against Wolves - Decent performance with some great saves by their keeper - Fantastic to see my Boy Garnacho coming off the bench to bang in number 2. Congratulations to Amad Diallo for receiving his Sunderland young player of the year award. One more clean sheet for DdG, will mean he will recieve the Golden Glove award alone, instead of sharing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have we ever been this much of an underdog coming into a Cup Final? 77, the Scousers were on for the Treble & we were certainly the underdogs that day - We beat them 2-1 & lifted the cup & stopped them doing the Treble. The previous year in 76, we were red hot favourites against Southampton & we lost 1-0. 85, Everton were on fire & favourites to beat us, but Big Norman scored an incredible goal in extra time to beat them 1-0 - We only had 10 men as well, what a fantastic day at Wembley that was - I think i was wearing at least 6 scarfs. Remember Man City v Wigan ??? Wigan were a massive price to win that day as City were the hottest favourites in years - Wigan beat them 1-0. I could go on & on with many other FAC Final upsets. But it's like this - We are most certainly the underdogs this time around, but that doesn't mean a thing. Its a one off game, 2 teams, 90 minutes of football & anything can happen on the day - If we turn up, play well, defend well, create & take our chances & have a bit of luck on our side, we can definitely beat them - We already beat them once this season & we can beat them again ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
