You’d have to be a moron to think I called you a moron. VDV was the subject.
This doesn’t mean that I don’t rate him as one of the best but I wonder if that stat only relates to a player who has had exactly 25 ariel duels.Tweet

That clip was some of the dumbest shit someone did in that game, and among the dumbest things Harry did all tournament. Yet you have multiple posts saying it's a perfectly fine play for 10 different reasons, but at the same time you're saying it's only one mistake You defending it inconsistently with these mutually exclusive positions tells me you're just defending him for the sake of it. I'm fairly convinced I could show you a video of Harry taking a dump on the ball, and you'd still get angry at me for criticizing his decision.I don't need to prove that he can,
You brought it up
I watched the games unlike you who types on youtube: Maguire fails.
Incredibly convincing rebuttal.
I watched enough matches for United and England to come up with the conclusion that Maguire is a good passer.
I had yet to notice you hold that opinion. Thought you read it in a magazine somewhere.
Sorry, I kinda skimmed over your post, because you went on some VVD & VDV rant instead of discussing the subject, Harry Maguire.You’d have to be a moron to think I called you a moron. VDV was the subject.
The clip of VVD was some of the dumbest shit done in the game to be fair.Just in case you don't understand, I included the vid for the footage of Harry Maguire, not because I expect people to understand Dutch.
I stand corrected.That's not true. He hasn't been in the PFA team of the year or the World Cup team of the tournament.
I don’t think he was in the World Cup team of the tournament...Fair play Harry, I’ll likely be a sceptic till he wins something with the club but his accolades as a player speak for themselves.
World Cup, Euros & Premiership Teams of the Tournament is some going - come on lad just captain us to something. . .
Apparently it was Lovren. . .I don’t think he was in the World Cup team of the tournament...
It's not your fault Sportbible got it wrong in fairness. He did have a very good World Cup actually and he's made whoscored's Premier League team of the season last year so perhaps they're being sneaky and using other TotS to generate clicks.Apparently it was Lovren. . .
I also assumed he got PFA team of the year the season prior to coming to us. . . Apparently not the case either.
Maguire did have a very good World Cup to be fair to him. He’s one of those players who plays very well more often than not but when it goes wrong it really goes wrong, which leads to people ridiculing him rather unfairly in my opinion. Rival fans act like he’s a banter player & he really isn’t at all.Apparently it was Lovren. . .

To be fair it was a lazy assumption on my end.It's not your fault Sportbible got it wrong in fairness. He did have a very good World Cup actually and he's made whoscored's Premier League team of the season last year so perhaps they're being sneaky and using other TotS to generate clicks.
Yea when it goes bad, it’s bad & I’ve been a major critic but when it comes to rival fans I pretty much switch off, you’d think the man was a semi-professional the way some fans go on.Maguire did have a very good World Cup to be fair to him. He’s one of those players who plays very well more often than not but when it goes wrong it really goes wrong, which leads to people ridiculing him rather unfairly in my opinion. Rival fans act like he’s a banter player & he really isn’t at all.
@VanDeBank is clearly a troll. Best ignoring him.Van de Bank asked earlier if anyone had seen Maguire ever play a defence splitting pass, he clearly has an agenda.
Pretty apt. Though van der Vaart is just clueless, whereas this guy is a troll. Hopefully the mods cop on.Van der Vaart's caf account? It's a joke
Harranja Maguirić or better, Harrio MagurićTweet

It's like a man playing with kids, shame he's got a puppy to play next to him
I'll change my opinion so you'll be able to sleep and I won't get banned:Oh no, someones unpopular opinion upsets me! Mods, please ban him or I won't be able to sleep!
but when it goes wrong it really goes wrong,
I think this description applies more to someone like Lindelof. Harry's very consistent and he's good at minimizing the damage when he does feck up. Maybe he just looks a bit clumsy in those situations and that's what you guys are referring to?Yea when it goes bad, it’s bad.
Probably but if we did do you think we would be able to buy Sancho, Varane and our other targets ?Absolute beast - we would've won the Europa league if he was playing.
I agree with this. If we won the europa league I did think that the board may see it as a false sense of security and not invest heavily this summer.Probably but if we did do you think we would be able to buy Sancho, Varane and our other targets ?
I think the only reason we are probably going to have spectacular transfer window is because of our failure to win anything in the past years.
He won a lot of headers in the opposition box last season tbf. The unusual bit was scoring.Great header for the goal (think that’s his 1st goal at Old Trafford?). He brings that calmness and composure at the back when things begin to look shaky. Badly missed that leadership when he got injured last season.
He looked a real dangerous threat from set-pieces today which is something we didn’t see much of last season as we didn’t look like scoring goals from in-direct free kicks or corners. Can’t wait to see him next to Varane
One of my gripes of the past two seasons was how slow our build up was when we got the ball to our defenders. I hope that this is a sign that we will ping that ball into our forward players much quicker, and accurately.His passing was as good as I’ve ever seen it for us. Quick and incisive, no dawdling on the ball for no reason. Hopefully it’s a sign of things to come.
It ain't about the contact but the nature of it. Clearly extended his leg and made a drama of it. VAR and no person with any common sense of football will give that a pen ffs.Looked well off the pace today. Really shaky, sort of got back the composure in his game in the last 20 and started to look better. How that wasn’t a pen he gave away I’ll never know. As clean a contact as you can get. Yes it was an crossing over error but he’s totally clipped him.
You know when you run your leg has to go back right to have a good stride pattern, he’s clipped him, which interrupts his stride causing him to fall over. Pen all day for me.It ain't about the contact but the nature of it. Clearly extended his leg and made a drama of it. VAR and no person with any common sense of football will give that a pen ffs.
Thank god you'll never see a premier league pitch in black. Feck me. Go watch it again from the other angle. Man was falling before even Maguire got there.You know when you run your leg has to go back right to have a good stride pattern, he’s clipped him, which interrupts his stride causing him to fall over. Pen all day for me.
Thats not going to be given as a penalty, rightfully so. Glad VAR and the refs are bringing in some common sense. Maguire didnt make a challenge, and that wont be seen as a penalty this season (well if refs do their job right like today).Looked well off the pace today.
