How do we sell Harry Maguire?

Would it be harsh to say he's cost us at least a dozen points this season? Genuinely puzzling how bad he is.
Yes, it would be harsh. Everything we see is more due to systems errors which are then compounded by errors from players elsewhere. Maguire has made plenty of mistakes, but not really more than others.
 
If you liken this to FIFA, he's basically an amateur AI who gets done with easy 1-2 through balls.
 
He did say that, and I agree with him. As I was saying, no problem with that. What I do have a problem with is the fact that he’s implying that he hasn’t been bad this season.
What he actually said was he hasn't been bad all season.
And again, he's right.
 
I would pay a team 30 mil to take Maguire. I hate him so much. Nothing personal. Just on football
 
And this clown had the audacity to come and say he's been playing well which is why he plays every week
 
how is he not hugely at fault there? He follows Mane into the middle of the pitch, leaving a massive hole for 2 players to run into before letting Mane turn and passing it into the space behind him. Just follow Mane. Foul him if you have to.

He did follow Mane. You said so yourself. Either way, he’s done there as it’s 3 on 1 if he allows mane to just turn and play. Dalot went after Salah and didn’t get back in. Pogba just stood and never tracked the run. Phil Jones steps up to try and play offside inexplicably.

Just a shambles all around, but all too often people analyse our goals and look to blame Maguire now. I’m waiting to hear how he’s at fault for the second
 
Ffs, he left defence (which he does every single game) and we conceded a goal because of that. He is absolute disaster and he cost us a goal every game
Again, he stepped out if defence because our midfield wasn't doing its job and was letting runners play through them. He made the mistake of not getting tight enough, but he didn't commit to Mané for no reason.
 
This game has a Maguire own goal written all over it.

he follows him half heartedly, stops and lets mane turn and play a pass as he watches him. What's the point of doing that? How is that even fitting of a professional football player? I think defenders learn that when they're about 8.

The very least he could do is force Mane to pass it backwards and then you can moan at other players if they haven't covered. Which is for another thread. Just utter shit
 
Smalling was far better and more dependable and I wasn't even Smalling's biggest fan. Here I said it.

I actually trusted Smalling more with defending.

I can't believe I'm saying this but it's really the truth at this point.
 
I hope Ralf 'drops' him just to see who people try blame everything on instead. The whole team are an absolute disgrace.

Same. I never rated Mike highly but he is Maldini for Maguire.

Imagine this shit; we payed 80 mil to fecking downgrade position. Man, that is something

I believe we'd be no worse off in defense if we had kept Evans and Smalling instead of buying shite like Maguire and Bailey/Lindelof
 
List as spares or repair and state 100% of the proceeds go to a childrens charity.

nah he isnt doing shit with mane right there. He is standing off in no mans land, allowing a pretty basic pass from mane to put them in. Standing off 10 feet isn't "following" anyone
 
Any blame for the midfield who vanished completely ?
Should the midfield be marking either Salah or Diaz? they're all shit, but that goal is on Dalot losing Salah hilariously easy and Maguire with his braindead offisde attempt.
 
Lacks leadership, cannot organise the defense to keep in shape/ hold the line. He isn't checking what's around him to snuff out danger and organise teammates around him. (Lacking positonal awareness). All basics of defending, utter madness.

Why the hell did we pay 80mil for him? He's having a shocker.
