Played well for England tonight, he doesn't have the same pressure on him when he plays for England and he has never let them down
 
Gareth Southgate on England fans booing Harry Maguire: "I thought the reception was a joke, an absolute joke. I don't get it. We're either all in this together or we're not."

Let us wait for a high pressure game. He does do crazy stuff and make some dumb decisions out of the blue.
 
It is weird that England fans would boo him... what for? I do feel sorry for Maguire right now.

Because tinternet has decided to make him a meme, so every daft sheep decides he’s shit and must boo him, rather than you know, looking at how he’s been an important part of an England side that made it’s first final in a half a century.
 
John Stones has fecked up plenty of big games for England with some truly awful defending. He’s not a meme though so no booing for him.
I am not justifying booing. Merely pointing out how Maguire has been this season.
The media influence is obviously a key factor in who gets booed and who doesn't. Now that I think about it, it is not so different from why Maguire cost 80M. Media hype and constant talk about being England's VVD contributed to him becoming the costliest defender ever.
 
Bizarre for England fans at the game to boo him, his performances for England have generally been of very high quality and he's never let his country down
Also stepped up to the plate under immense pressure in a penalty shoot out just 7 months ago. But then again England fans have always been tribal, the fact he plays for Manchester United is enough for a lot of people

I used to think these "Maguire is a bad defender" people were just stupid, but I'm beginning to whether they're actually mentally ill and also really stupid.

ABU. Everbody hates United and when you play for us you get treated differently. That's why the pressure is so much higher at our club compared to others.
 
Bit weird that England fans are booing him. He's never yet been directly booed by United fans, that I know of, so this is just very, very odd.
Disgraceful.
He's been good for England too. Southgate's style is the perfect buffer for his defensive game, so non of what just happened makes any sense.
 
England fans being nobs?

England fans booing Utd players?

Bloody hell I might need a lie down. Whatever next.

You would think they were more keen on ganging up on a United player than on supporting their own player.
 
Because he's been pure shit the whole season yet gets selected for the England squad purely on reputation and not form.

He gets selected to the England squad because he has always played good in that team.

This is the gist of it I think. That Southgate leaves out other CB’s who are having great seasons whilst also saying numerous times he selects players only on merit, not their profile or club. Maguire has been a laughing stock all season whereas Tomori for example has been killing it at Serie A leading Milan and gets snubbed.

I don’t think the fans boo Maguire for anything he has personally done.
 
No sympathy and well deserved.

Joke of a player, the sooner he is booted out to finish his pointless career in mid table mediocrity, the better. How the hell has he become our captain.
 
Bit weird why he's being booed by England fans but can't help but think the celebration vs San Marino hasn't helped his cause with non United fans either
 
Maguire's selection was a reflection of Southgate's staunch conservatism in his general tactical approach. Yet he decides to chuck the blueprint in the strangest of times such as when he allowed his youth players to take England's first few penalties in the Euro final.

Having said that, by virtue of performances alone, he has been England's best manager in recent years

The biggest problem England fans have had over the years is their inability to separate club from country. This is partially why the team has been liked by most over the past few years. Not as many United players in the starting XI as in the past...
 
Sad part is I don't think he's the type of character to shake that kind of thing off.

Because football is all about narratives and tribal memes. When a player is tagged with something, it sticks unanimously, for some weird reason.
 
Let’s hope he gets a good reception at OT

That’s how it used to be
I wouldn't hold your breath. Old Trafford is turning on him, too. Gone are the days when we stuck by Becks and Phillip after getting stupid abuse from stupid fans.

Speak for yourself. He'll get a good reception from me, I know that much. While he's our player and on the pitch for us, he should be supported.

Erm, no.

Maguire has routinely been one of our best players alongside Kane and Sterling(who also gets unwarranted abuse).

it'd be stupid from Southgate to exclude him after performing so well for him in both major tournaments so far. If his form drops for England like here, sure, but it hasn't.

He'll get a good reception from me, too, but you could see the change during the Atletico game. A lot of Old Trafford has lost patience with him.
 
The booing is inexcusable but I’ve said before, what Maguire is going through is Man Utd’s fault for putting him on such a high pedestal. Making him the highest paid defender in the world and then making him captain. It’s just not right and I think they actually have a duty of care to take him out of the spotlight a bit. Make someone else captain and just let Maguire contribute as a normal squad player.
