I’m hoping that we keep him as depth and let Maguire go to new pastures. I feel Evan’s is still solid as a backup, at least better than Maguire.
We should be signing a young player who grows into the role. I don't think signing Evans in place of Maguire is a good idea.
well depends on the finances, he is free and he should count as a homegrown player right?
Maguire is basically 5th choice behind Licha(Shaw) and Varane(Lindelof) so having a cheap player as 5th choice who also counts as homegrown is a pretty good deal for the short term.
This was my take on Evan’s coming in. He’s experienced, he knows our clubs culture and plays for the badge. He’s a stop gap until we identify the young player we want. It’s not a perfect solution but one I’m happy with.
