He was great today. Faster distribution and very solid defensively. Up there with Bruno and Fred.
If he was absent and it was back to the days of Smalling and Blind, Everton would have had a field day. He dominated our box. That was the perfect game for him, hopefully we'll see more of this.
That's a strange take since the stuff he was doing well today is pretty much what Smalling generally did. Dominating in the air, blocking shots and cutting out the passes coming into the box.
Excellent game today. When we are under the cosh and Everton raining crosses into our box, Harry is there to clear every time.
Probably his best performances this season, won a number of headers.
Question,
If we weren't in for Maguire which club would he have ended up at?

Thought he was excellent today. Bruno will deservedly get the plaudits but Maguire was quality.
He was excellent particularly 2nd half, considering he got nothing from Lindelof who lost every header he competed for.
He'd either still be at Leicester or at Man City. Pep wanted him when we signed him but we were willing to pay more.
One of the best defensive performances I've seen. Won absolutely everything.
This sums him up.
Thought he was like a rock today. Evertons game plan did suit him but he was immense on the balls in to the box.
I have a lot of strong memories against West Ham and Everton where we were losing every battle in the air despite Fellaini.
Man City
Difference is though Maguire can bring the ball out and pass it and pass forward which is a big difference even though I like smalling
This.
He was a total rock at the back. He is so much better when we weren’t playing a high line. We should’ve had a penalty as well at the attacking end when Pickford dropped that ball and took him out.
Rock solid
He looked really determined today. Very likely his best game this season. That defending tackle he made in the second half in the penalty was the first time I remember he went in hard in his United career. He, together with Bruno, was my MoM today.
My biggest gripe is him taking too many touches and holding the ball too much. Needs to move the ball much more quickly to deny giving the opposition time to organise themselves, get in shape and mark our players out.

MOTM. Bruno was the difference maker up front, but Maguire hardly put a foot wrong all game. Immense.
Great game from the captain
Displayed his strengths to the maximum yesterday
Dominate in the air. Great positional sense, a calm presence at the back.

Brilliant yesterday. His haters try to pretend these performances don’t exist
The guy is a much better player than a lot on here give credit. He’s perfectly capable of being part of a title winning side.
Or they just bring his price tag into it.
Really good game yesterday, especially in the 2nd half when the team was defending deep.
Apparently Ole likes him doing that.
He was very good.
Shades of Vidic in terms of aerial dominance.

This was his first of the kind for United though. He hasnt been anywhere close to this level for us before.
But he was excellent against Everton, and if he keeps up this level I will happily eat crow for being one of those not thinking he is good enough.
He was a brick wall yesterday.
Anybody getting through him would be smashed.

That was a proper Captains performance, hopefully he can push on now and help us climb the table after the break.
He has had the odd game here and there like this. Although this is probably the first since the lockdown last season.
100 % Man City. Pep wanted him and there was video of him admitted that he wanted him. City didn’t want to pay more 70m and pretty sure his price would have dropped this year due to covid and both clubs will finally find an agreement of fees.
Just proved the doubters wrong.
And today he is the captain.
But he aint a leader.... Only Bruno is fighting the refs and standing up for our players!
Im I doing this right?

Adding goals to his game
Captain for club and country.
Well deserved.
Cant wait till we see Telles whip in those crosses onto Slabhead and Cavani's bonces

Seems to have put his episode at the start of the season behind him. Good on him.
good on Southgate for playing him. It seems it was mostly Utd fans who were having a go at him, which is somewhat strange, but not unexpected from our toxic fanbase.
He hasn’t proved any such thing. He has demonstrated that he can perform at a very high level. He has actually done it before; he was consistently very good for four or so months before lockdown.
His doubters, and all our other inconsistent players’ doubters, will be silenced once we start to see good performances on a regular basis.
OK, some people will moan regardless
