I always feel like on top of the premium fee for British players there is also a premium for being Manchester United. If there was another club going in for Maguire I doubt they would even quote anything north of 50 Million.
We are desperate for quality in defence so we really have no choice in the matter.
As for the midfield, I do agree with you. You will remember the season when we finished second, De Gea won the golden glove with this same defenders. That is because Jose played defensive.
Under Solskjaer towards the end of the season we exposed our poor defense as a consequence of how we played. Attacking football exposes our frail defense.
A quality CB and a new CDM to replace the sloth that is Matic would do wonders to our campaign.
