Sky reporting he’s reviewing all his options
One of the daftest posts I’ve ever read on here considering his superb fitness and availability for teams he plays for.Honestly feel a bit sorry for him now. He needs to move to ensure his career doesn’t go the way of Jones’. I still think he’d do a job for a side, just not ours
Hi Harry, I'm selling you so won't be captain anymore eh.
OK Eric I'll still give it my all.
Harry you are being sold eh!
Thanks Eric, see you at training I'll give it my all.
I’ve never warmed to him, but the dignified way he’s handled himself in recent times has rather impressed me. And yes it’s weird that people find grounds to further criticise him for stuff like thisCorrect.
To remind myself how normal the statement is, I’ve just looked at what happened with Tyrone Mings last summer. Unsurprisingly, he wrote a similarly respectful statement and wished John McGinn the best publicly.
In this day and age, not saying anything would be weird.
The cultish way in which people hate Maguire (on what seems to be a suspiciously personal level) is really, very strange.
Maguire is not the smartest one, or? His statement somehow tells that the "big, bad manager" has stripped him of the captaincy what he cannot understand...
If he would be smart he would have told that it atleast was in agreement with Ten Hag...
He dropped Ronaldo to the bench before he threw his toys out of the pram.Big fan of Ten Hag, but apart from De Gea none of those are really ruthless.

It takes balls dropping Ronaldo regardless his form.True, but he wasn't performing well for many games. And knowing Ronaldo he probably sulked a bit behind the scenes first.

Amazing how people can come to polar opposite conclusions based on the same scenario.
It's definitely a nudge for him to leave. Above all, disregarding Maguire, it's a necessary change for United to have a captain playing regularly that also commands the respect of his squad.
We can't be 100% certain that he's leaving until another club have come in and agreed a deal with us (and him). It's not a good position to be in to officially have him as captain until that time, while everyone and their dog knows that he's barely going to play and the club will happily sell him if the option is there.If he was leaving then I don't think this would have happened. To me, it's a sign he's probably staying.
Seriously? In hindsight of course he shouldn't have got it, although it should be noted that there wasn't a single player in the team at that time that would have been a good choice. But he did get it so making that statement when it's taken off him is absolutely the right thing to do, for himself, the fans and the club. People would be getting angry about him showing disrespect if he just stayed silent and hadn't said anything once we knew about the captaincy changing. The only thing that perhaps could have been done different is for him to say that he understood the decision instead of only saying he was disappointed in it.There was no need for him to post it on Twitter with an emotional message. He never deserved the armband.
Years overdue. In fact, shouldn't have happened in the first place.
There’s absolutely nothing wrong in that statement maguire put out.Exactly my thoughts. Why the statement? Comes across entitled and bitter.
Says more about the state of our squad at the time. Not saying Maguire was suitable, but neither was anyone else.
The fact that you think I hate him is only because you hate me. See how that works? I don’t hate him. I just found it strange that he felt the need to post it. Never seen an internal decision like stripping off captaincy being posted like that on twitter before atleast not from a United captain.Wtf no it doesn't. It comes across as entitled and bitter because you hate him; nothing in the actual statement comes across that way even in the slightest.

He seems genuinely perplexed that he's lost the captaincy, and to think that he's only got to work hard to be a first team player again. I guess the kind of delusion you need to be a winner, but still... Can't imagine him leaving if he thinks that way.
Ten Hag is a badass.
The Sun tomorrow morning “ Maguire storms out of meeting after been stripped of captaincy”Exactly my thoughts. Why the statement? Comes across entitled and bitter.
