I've always wondered why the comeback counts towards his mental toughness and the fact that he became a meme in the first place on the back of him consistently crumbling under any sorts of pressure doesn't. He does deserve the credit for doing what he does now but I wouldn't say that he has an exemplary mentality after what I've seen of him previously.but he obviously does have the mentality. To come back from being an absolute meme, with all the fans slating him and put in the strong performances he has done this season is something to be commended.
Interesting video, would like to see one around McTominay and see how often he stays in the 'passing shadow'.
It would be too long.Interesting video, would like to see one around McTominay and see how often he stays in the 'passing shadow'.
Too many of our players actively hide, McT and Maguire the worst, Rashford also does itInteresting video, would like to see one around McTominay and see how often he stays in the 'passing shadow'.
I like Scott but as sub/3rd choice for multiple positionsInteresting video, would like to see one around McTominay and see how often he stays in the 'passing shadow'.
"The biggest structural issue we have". Utter nonsense.
Are you going to prove otherwise or just throw that statement out there?"The biggest structural issue we have". Utter nonsense.
Yeah it's not only him we have few ghosts in the team. Then we have players who show for the ball only to give it away. Ten Hag needs quite a few more transfer windows to implement his vision on the team, I don't think he'll get there and we'll go back to changing the Manager and rebuilding once more....Interesting video, would like to see one around McTominay and see how often he stays in the 'passing shadow'.
And every other CB. There's one single clip of Todibo 'doing the right thing'. Show me the full match clips of Lascelles being flawless in the same scenarios and you might have a point.Are you going to prove otherwise or just throw that statement out there?
I'm willing to bet there are countless examples of him doing this every game.
MAguire still cannot pass the ball and actively hides from it. He is a major limit on our ability to play out from the backWe’ve come full circle under ETH.
Maguire and McTomminay are in the team and we are losing every other game.
Deja vu anyone
He’s shyt at defending as well. We concede chances for fun when he plays.MAguire still cannot pass the ball and actively hides from it. He is a major limit on our ability to play out from the back
Don't think his performances have actually been anything amazing, but he looks like he gives a feck and is putting effort in. That's more than can be said about plenty of others.Really nice to see his redemption arc, still not a fan of his style but he has to be commended on his performances this season.
It's one of those cases where stats clearly cannot paint the full picture. His passing is fairly accurate both long and short. However, the speed of the passes are so slow, weak and lofty that it makes it impossible to build play.MAguire still cannot pass the ball and actively hides from it.

He's fine if you want to sit deep and abandon any attempts at modern proactive football, which we've done since losing Martinez.
He’s been good at clearing balls but not for the way we want to play. We had some movement patterns introduced since ETH joined, which we used to play out of press. Those are unfortunately gone since Maguire came back.
We're playing a higher line than last season, which was one of the deepest in the league.He's fine if you want to sit deep and abandon any attempts at modern proactive football, which we've done since losing Martinez.
Asking him to play out the back under pressure is a recipe for disaster. He's not a quick ball player. Needs multiple touches and time to distribute the ball which the decent sides don't give you.
doesnt have to be one or the other. In fact i say it is pretty obvious that it is both right now. Our backline cant play out with confidence, and the midfield is nonexistent as well. Overall just a fecking joke and the reason ive lost most of my faith in EtH.I totally think it's Maguire that is preventing us from playing out from the back and not the fact that we have practically no midfield...
Swap Maguire and Lindelof for Lascelles and Schar and we'd have won by 4 or 5.I totally think it's Maguire that is preventing us from playing out from the back and not the fact that we have practically no midfield...
It's not controversial, at least it shouldn't be, everything you said is right.Might be controversial but his redemption arc thing has been overhyped. He is not performing like Maldini or vidicesque. He is doing a decent job in a shit side. Doesn't mean he is a top class defender. What he is doing now is basic, nothing extraordinary.
I mean starter for ten, in that video Maguire is criticised for "not making himself available to Onana", which is entirely fair. However, later on when he is available as a option, the video then makes the implicit criticism that "Maguire isn't being pressed because he's not a threat". That creates a scenario where the guy cannot fecking win; if he's not available for a pass then he's hiding, and if he is it's because the opposition don't view him as a threat.Are you going to prove otherwise or just throw that statement out there?

yep exactly what i was thinking. This would help us actually get a decent price for him if we were proactive. The rumor that jimmy wants a bigger english core is scary when you consider how overpriced even the most remotely talented english player is vs the value in the market for non english talentA well run club will use this to get a good price for him in the summer. However, at United it'll be funny when he gets a new contract on the back of this & under the Jimmy Brexit's English revolution, and then goes on to stink up the place for another 3 seasons.
