Former Man Utd player calls for criticism of Harry Maguire to stop

Manchester United in 2019 paid over £80 million to secure the services of England defender, Harry Maguire. Since then he became the most expensive signing for a defender at the club, in these seasons he has failed to show the performance he had in his previous team, at the same time fans have been losing patience with the player.

At the beginning of the story it was a source of ridicule when the player did not pass the ball correctly, or when he compromised goalkeeper David de Gea. As time went on, the criticism changed, he was being directly attacked by a section of the fans, and the player's lack of confidence increased as a result of the media pressure.

Girgio Chiellini had already commented on the fact that the player is highly criticised in his environment, perhaps in another team this situation would not exist. The reality is that Harry Maguire has not been in footballing form, largely because of what he has received from the fans, even the defender has tinged dressing room problems with de Gea, who believes he should defend further forward, and Maguire does not see that situation.

"What they do to Maguire is a disaster"

Former Manchester United player Nemanja Matic spoke out in favour of the central defender being over-criticised, even being exaggerated the controversy being sought, he does not consider them to be good fans, he told Times Sport. Harry Maguire has not had a good season so far and will try to regain some confidence so he can be ready when Erik ten Hag needs minutes from the player.
