Err. Guys I don’t know how much he gets paid but I really think he’s blow our pay structure. And you know what? I doubt it would work out. I remember an interview of AWB in his breakout season and it was clear to me he was off as soon as a good bid came. Good luck to him but I am loving Ward’s rejuvenation Edited by Aray (08 Nov 2021 6.51am) he's on £80k a week so we could definitely afford him. I think there was solid logic in him signing for Man U. His defensive qualities were excellent so they could build on his attacking side, especially as he used to be a winger. Unfortunately it appears he was a limited winger as this side of his game hasn't really improved. I rarely see him doing an overlap run and whipping over a 1st time cross. Now his confidence appears to be shot and he looks a little lost. Such a shame as there is clearly a good player in there.

I think AWB , is being hung out to dry, in every, and which way..The attitude seems to be he does everything down their right side all on his own.

Maguire must be the most overrated defender in Europe.

sheesh, he's a 23yr old young defender - at the beginning of his 3rd Season of PL football.

Man U don't play as a team. AWB will be fine there once they sort out the manager.

Playing him as a wing back was crazy, Luke Shaw maybe, but not AWB. For both of the goals at the weekend they overloaded the left, and whoever was playing right CB didn't offer any support. His body language isn't great, but that's kinda just the way he holds himself. Anyone would look bad in that team at the min. It looks like they are playing to get Ole sacked.

And he gets paid more money in a week than (for example) a head teacher in Manchester gets paid in a year (approx range £51kpa to £86kpa; average £66k).

Picking AWB, out for slagging , is highly typical for Utd , whether that be fan,or ex players. It’s all part of why they don’t get what’s wrong with them.

How many players can we afford to pay that kinda money to? Not that many, I'd say. Given the amount and the way we used to defend - AWB was a godsend. He's a fantastic tackler. But now I think we've moved on - got Fergie to come.
