Hes obviously playing injured and thats on Ole to stop him playing
Maguire needs to be replaced
- Thread starter Desert Eagle
- Start date
Currently playing like a 34 year-old Gary Pallister.
The OP is right but for completely the wrong reasons.
Maguire is in pretty poor form, my suspicion is that he's mentally exhausted due almost non stop football over the past few seasons, and needs a break.
Calling him an average to awful defender though? That's just silly.

Right now he's barely championship level. He's shocking at the moment. However, he was phenomenal for England during the Euros, so he's clearly capable of a lot more.
Probably needs a break from football. He can't play when he is in this poor form.

Ole's favourite, won't happen.
Last week Ronaldo, now Maguire. Fred every week, Rashford, Greenwood.
Blah blah fecking blah. No individual player or formation is our problem with regards to "progressing".

Yeah, well. It has been obvious for ages but with Bailly and Varane both playing, it really demonstrates how limited he is.
Aye, just said similar elsewhere. No matter who plays alongside him he's always the weak link. You simply cannot keep playing him when he's this out of form. But we kept going with De Gea when he was gifting goals every game, now it's Maguires turn. It'll cost him his job ultimately.
Was it a brain injury? Because it's affecting his decisions.
Needs culturally booted out of the football club. He’s fecking pish.
He looks like Phil Jones looked the last few times he played for us.
Hopefully, we don't do the 2nd part now.
My thread about Maguire and Pogba being shiteballs has been removed.
He's actually trying to sabotage us. There's no other explanation of why he's been so shit after his return from injury.
Bad fitness can do that too though, not up to speed or as sharp etc
80m for this clown
He's thr leader of the next deadwoods fc along with AWB, Telles, shaw, jones, baily, dvd, fred, dalot, perreira, lingardinho,
Added with cavani and pogba moving on and ronaldo 37 next year.
500M well spent ole

Varane injury keeps him in team. Without Varane we simply have to play a back 5
Fair enough, but fitness needs to be build up and that can only come from playing matches.
He’s far too slow. Him and DDG need replacing for differing reasons. I think DDG is fine for now but I expect how defence to be a lot better with a goalkeeper that comes off his line. Maguire is just an average defender
He genuinely disgusts me, but he is as untouchable as the manager it seems.
He's a biggest issue than anyone at the moment.
Worse centre back play I've seen in a long while.
Ole have to get blame too for playing him but what's the options. Varane and Bailly would look a good partnership at the moment but both Injury prone

Pointless to have these threads when it’s so evident the tactics are levels below where they need to be. Let a new manager come in, then let’s judge.
Both of Bailly and Maguire must have been instructed to step in and try to intervene.
I wouldn't really blame him about the first goal, but yes - Zapata turned him and left him behind. But Harry was so slow to try and force the offside, he should've been closer to Bailly and it just shows how poor he's been.
Maguire performance thread, a drop Maguire thread and now this one?
I know he's bad, but......

The defence will look miles better when/if we ever start playing good football across the pitch.
Sack Ole first - no point judging players until we actually have a competent manager and tactics.
(He has been dreadful recently though and should be dropped)

If players were being picked on form, Maguire would be on the bench. I say that as a Slabhead fan. He needs a kick up the arse and the squad players need a message that poor performances won't be tolerated, no matter who you are.
I see no lies in the OP.
His best performances have come in Southgates negative England side, terrible signing.

When has he been very good? He's been abysmal from day one..
Did fergie not say when Rooney came back from injury he just had to keep playing him until he found his form?
I'd say maguire has fat feet too

Give him a rest for a few games and move on ffs.
Happy to let him go tbh. He's a brutal, brutal footballer and a typical, 90s archetype Prem CB.
A complete lack of athleticism and spends his time pointing or directing traffic.
See if Leicester want him back.

Hes been shit this year but is far from the problem. There is no coaching going on with us. Criticisms for everything else are literally just on hold for me until Ole is sacked, because nobody can do anything right so I'll reserve judgment until then.
He's miles out of form but that's pure bollocks. He was very good last season, prior to the season ending injury. I mean, just look at how bad we were without him in the last few games.
So he's often been very good but, currently, is awful.
Yes we did miss him, but last season he was really on his game, this season he's just a shadow of that player, really needs to be left out for a spell.
We have a bigger problem than Maguire.
He has been a liability from day one. Anyone that thinks he is a good defender, knows very little about football.
Huh?
He's been below average last year as well.
Euros fooled anyone including me, to think he's capable of more and he'd become more steady and reliable with time.
Should've never named him captain anyway.
Which is nonsense.
