A number of Manchester United fans have been slamming the performance of Harry Maguire in the first half of their game at Leicester City in the Premier League.
The defender only came back into training a couple of days ago following an injury which kept him out of England’s two World Cup qualifying games against Andorra and Hungary, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer decided to throw him straight into the starting line-up today.
Have Manchester United wasted money on Maguire?
Yes
No
He started off shakily, being beaten easily by Kelechi Iheanacho, and certainly did not like he was fully fit. Then, with United leading 1-0 on the half-hour, he was dispossessed all too easily by the Nigerian, who duly set up Youri Tielemans to score a superb equaliser for the Foxes.
Maguire will be hoping to put in a much better performance in the second half against his former club, not least after his costly error for Leicester’s leveller.
Man Utd fans on Maguire’s display
These Red Devils fans on Twitter slammed his performance, with one United fan even going as far as to claim that he has been a ‘liability’:
“Maguire has already started his rubbish!”
“Maguire is so useless kai”
“Maguire looks unfit”
“Harry Maguire is liability”
“Your boy Maguire is WOEFUL”
“Maguire is a total waste of funds.”
