Bailly doesn’t start so isn’t an issue. The issue is the undroppable captain Maguire.
Maguire needs to be replaced
- Thread starter Desert Eagle
- Start date
That’s harsh on trucks.
It beggars belief that he still gets picked.
He needs took out for a while to say the least. When Victor is back put him alongside varane. He's in shocking shocking form
What was he like at Leicester? Tbh I never really watched a lot of them never mind Maguire. Were Citeh actually in for him or was that pure media speculation? I don’t know if it confidence, he struggles with the weight of the club shirt and captaincy…….or he just s just shit. He fails with the absolute basics and gets caught out far too easily.
I actually think he should be fourth choice CB. Personally I'd prefer to see Bailly + Varane as the long term partnership. Lots of speed there and Varane can cover for Bailly's occasional brain farts. Don't think this would leave us weak in the air either.
80 million down the drain. What a strange buy him being available all the time isn't really a plus.
He's one of the worst CB's to if not the worst to ever start this consistently for United. Tragic.
Hopefully Ralf will be his iceberg. Man can dream...
A great canditate for" the worst ever PL signing award."
That was a part of it but Maguire also failed to cover any of the goal as the last man
This is just ridiculously untrue - Lennon had only a balls width to aim at, unfortunately it was an inch perfect finish.
None of it would have happened if Bailly didn't hand the ball to a charging Lennon with only Maguire as last man.
We could blame this to our previous manager with his moronic british approach. It's on him bringing this piece of turd for 80mil. Anyone who said he built a better team makes me laugh off my chair.
Complete liability in every aspect of his play.
Can't defend. Can't head. Can't stop pinging unnecessary Hollywood passes when he has easier options available.
Shockingly bad.

I think at this point it's so toxic against him that no matter who makes a mistake in defense Maguire will always get some sort of blame.
I cant help but laugh at how he always turns and try to do that late failed block gets me every time
He's fecking useless, like comedy level shite
And the worst part is....nah....not gonna say it.
Ah, so Maguire covered the net perfectly which is why they didn't score.
He has been dire once again.
Could have cost us a penalty for the tangle with Wood, when he wasn't paying attention.
Bailly was the main culprit for the goal giving the ball away but Maguire was far too casual and Lennon took advantage of being under zero pressure.

It's been happening for a while now, every goal we concede is somehow his fault. It usually involves a ridiculous excuse to absolve the player who's actually to blame.
Seems like the Old Trafford crowd is finally starting to get on him. Misjudging that header was comical.
£250k per week…
I think he is totally lacking any confidence right now. He seems scared all the time, which causes him to make mistake after mistake. Can we get him a motivational speaker or someone else who can infuse some self believes back into this guy?
Watching the highlights of him at half time.
He is actually so bad at some of the basics.
He should be closing off Lennon's option into the corner he scored and pushing him wide so his only chance is to near post.
And that attempted header leaping like a dead salmon.

I can only assume you can't read, or you're a child. Let me break it down for you.
You said Maguire didn't cover any of the goal.
I pointed out that he covered most of it, leaving a very small target that unfortunately Lennon hit with a superb finish.
You then claim I said Maguire covered it perfectly.
Just bizarrely childish. Dislike Maguire by all means, but it undermines your position if you have to speak blatant untruths in order to back it up.
Weird that fans needs to vent in a thread about a player on our own team. The performance threads are closed, yet you need to vent in a different thread?
The guy is clearly struggling and his confidence looks shut. Some support from the fans would do him a world of good.

This is literally the exact opposite of what anyone who has played football will tell you. The far post is a much more difficult finish than the near post in that scenario. Any defender will tell you he's right to block the near post and any attacker will tell you that 99 times out of 100 the shot Lennon tries there gets saved or goes wide.
Buying mostly British players in the PL is a bad approach imo. They're usually overpriced (e.g. Kane, Andy Carroll, Maguire). It's why I'm sceptical of buying Rice. He'll cost double of what he's worth.
He is the captain and most expensive centre back. He's going to be held to a higher standard.
That surprised me. It suggests it's not just us moaning on a forum but a common opinion in the fanbase.
It’s hilarious, I said in the match day thread, Varane mistake vs Newcastle and Bailly tonight, and the blame goes to Maguire for both
Jeysys Lenon is torturing him. We have no future with this guy in our team as he cannot play unless he’s sitting deep as feck.
Embarrassing again. Can't wait to see the back of him.
I struggle to believe he would make any Premier League team better in his current form.
Yeah the agendas are embarrassingIt’s hilarious, I said in the match day thread, Varane mistake vs Newcastle and Bailly tonight, and the blame goes to Maguire for both
It’s not an agenda, his form has been utter shite. Name me a worse performing captain at united, I’ll wait.
Rooney in his last year ...probably.
Against Newcastle its Varanes initial mistake yes. His defending was still poor though so he takes some blame for that goal. Today can’t blame him too much for that goal.It’s hilarious, I said in the match day thread, Varane mistake vs Newcastle and Bailly tonight, and the blame goes to Maguire for both
In general its never one person to blame for a goal so its not unusual for someone to get blame when someone else also made a mistake. E.g vs Newcastle
Firstly he should be tighter, by getting tighter he immediately cuts off the far post option. Which means Lennon can only take him on to have a go near post which he can block or DDG should have it covered.
he’s in poor form, most would acknowledge that, but the nonesense written about him in this thread and others is ridiculous which is why agenda has been mentioned.
It does feel like there is an agenda against Maguire at times, but at the same time, his performances are consistently under par.
For me, Maguire, Bailly and Lindelof can all go. I think Maguire is by far the better player of the three, but he's been out of form for so long now I don't see him regaining.
We need another CB on Varane's level.
