Shouting for an offside? Agreed.
Its not that he made him a captain, its that he did feck all to earn it, he just joined the club. Best part of all, he was promoted by a guy who supposedly know whats United about, United DNA. Previous captains bled to earn the honor for it and this guy got it 5 min after signing a contract, its actually funny.
He reportedly had a 63K pound tab at the club in Mykonos where he got in trouble. He might not have much to spend in his 60s if he's not wise!
Looking lost and confused.
He was appealing for an offside.
How is that not obvious to everyone who viewed that clip?
That goal is so Maguire this season isn't it.
99/100 that one simply deflects away harmlessly or gets blocked. But no, that one has to ridiculously go in.

Better to fit a different narrative
You don't appeal while play is going on round him. He's flat footed enough. Does he think he's more likely to get it right than VAR?
My sons first shout was who did it hit.
Mine was who do you fecking think.
Put him in city and watch them crumble to pieces. Never ever would he keep up with citys tempo.
The question Is why appeal when the play is going on AND you are in the thick of it. Situational awareness is something CBs tend to take pride in.
Players often stick an arm in the air when they feel a player is offside, it's a fairly natural thing to do.
The point is he wasn't appealing for a handball against Matic despite what Troll Football would have you believe
You've never seen a player put their arm in the air to appeal for an offside while play continues?
He really attracts misfortune like no other
Any chance we'd be lucky enough with Greece asking for him to be extradited to face charges?
I could find any centre back doing the same at some point. Unfortunately they don't attract the clicks on 'troll football'.
Maguire appealing for a handball against Matic. Elanga tackling Rashford and people are still wondering why we won't make top 4Players often stick an arm in the air when they feel a player is offside, it's a fairly natural thing to do.

I have to admit I don't like any player putting their arm up for a possible offside. In my experience they do it only if they're 100% certain or they've been caught out of position and raise their arm as a last hail Mary. VAR has been around long enough for players to get out of this habit. If it's a 50/50 decision raising an arm loses a split second of concentration which could make the difference of conceding or not. Just play to the whistle.
The original clip showed one of the Everton players was a few yards behind Maguire when the ball was played, leading Maguire to assume him offside. It's a nothing incident, mate. Unless you believe Troll Football's theory; Maguire was calling for a handball on his own teammate

So he knew Richarlson was behind him but didn't know Lindelof was standing behind Richarlson and just stuck his hand up in the air rather than attempt to go for a ball three years from him?
Are top class Defender's told to just wave their hands in the air when they have no idea what or who is behind them
Taking you at your word regards Lindelof, but he shouldn't have been behind Maguire anyway.
Maguire raising his arm to appeal for offside isn't even the argument, so stop moving the goalposts. Troll Football claimed Maguire was appealing for a handball against Matic, they were wrong.
I really think he appealed for a hand ball but it's not worth the effort of us arguing in all honesty when the players can't even put an effort in on the pitch.
Aye, you're not wrong to be fair.
Remember when he scored against San Marino and cupped his ears the fecking sack of spunk
Shit player, shit captain I generally hate him.

When I talk about Maguire with United fans in person, the hate for him has become huge. When did it intensify? When he cupped his ears against Albania?
He gets on the ball. Dawdles on it for 5-10 seconds like he's Messi only to play a pass that was on 5-10 seconds before as well.
It's infuriating to watch.

Probably, but I distinctly remember Gary Neville on more than one occasion waiting until a play went dead and then appealing for offside even when we had a goal kick
Why is this thread so busy?
He had a regular/ok sort of game. There's really nothing to discuss.

It’s because the fan base is the most toxic part of the club and identifies him as a figurehead of failure despite being nowhere near the worst offender. He’s the lightning rod that draws the blame for others being shoddy.
He is the figurehead of failure. He's the captain ffs
You’ve totally misunderstood what I mean by that. He’s seen as the reason for the failure which is nonsense.
Who was it against when Barthez was raising his arm asking for an offside? That was far worse. But I really hate it when players do it.
Probably because he's been shite for awhile now plus he's the captain. The last time I remember anyone consistently defending him was when his form was decent and he was actually solid, and people nitpicked the odd moment when he got skinned. Now it's a regular occasion.
I think it just sums up this season in one move, carelessness by Fred on the ball with the rubbish pass to set it all off, Matic just being swamped because he couldn't sort his feet out, AWB and other players just dawdling back to defend and the deflection off Maguire to top it all off.
West Ham in the cup. Moron didn’t even bother to dive when Di Canio shot.
