Your agenda is clear. It's unbelievable to see the number of United "supporters" who seem upset that Maguire had a good match. Doesn't matter who he played against. Mind you, could you imagine the amount of heat he'd be getting if he was in the starting line up against world power houses like Galatasary (3-2 loss)or Forrest (narrow 3-2 win)

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Well no one else has really managed it so why would we expect Magiure or any of our defenders to be able to do so?
Won every aerial challenge thrown at him. A pillar at the back last night...solid game.
If he's content with being 3rd choice for now (that's where I'd have him at the moment, way ahead of Lindelöf), I'd like to see him stay and us to sell Varane. The latter is really injury prone and we're giving him almost twice as much in wages as Maguire.
It seems like we're buying an RCB next summer either way, so offloading Varane with astronomical wages and 1 year left on his contract seems like the right decision in light of his injury problems. Maguire then can fight for his place with the new signing, whoever that may be.

There’s a place for both Maguire and Varane. Varane can’t play 2 games in a week.
Maguire needs to play against teams without clinical fast strikers, especially vs teams who like to play it long.

We should be looking to upgrade on Varane soon just based on his abilities themselves, not to mention his injury record, astronomical wages and expiring contract in 2025. Summer 2024 will be the perfect time to offload him to the saudis or someone else and buy a new, younger, better RCB to play with Martínez.
Sure Martinez had him quiet in a previous game. I could be wrong though.
Love to see it! Show them captain! That percentage keeps going up and up! Love it I say!
I think you're referring to the game where Shaw played LCB perhaps, but the point still stands, most teams have been incapable of stopping him given the number of goals he' scored

Man Utd 1:0 FC Copenhagen
He has actually been our best player these last 2 games.
Maguire hive is back in business baby!
Atta boy.
Good game again.
Skipper.
Harry fecking Mags!
Feck the haters
Good again. Head down, work hard, keep the place
Good game, precious goal
Credit to him. Far better when the pressure of captain is off him
He got a match winner in the Champions League. Bet he feels fecking amazing.
Good game Harry!
Happy for him. He can enjoy being the hero for a few days as it won't be long until we are back to slating his every move
See McTominay for reference

Well, what to say… he scored the winner
Fair play to him, talks a lot of shit but is currently backing it up. Deserves to be playing on form now.
When Maguire plays well he gets lots of praise, hopefully, this continues because he's one of our best players ATM.
Dodgy mistake at the start but solid enough otherwise and good goal. He needs to stop taking so many touches though in possession, nothing new there, but hurt us in the first half tempo wise.
Thought he was okay overall. Then came up and scored the important goal. There was one time where both Varane, and then Maguire had gone to the right to challenge for the ball and Lindelof had to come across from leftback and clear the cross from the middle because our Cbs were nowhere in sight. So certainly some things to improve on
Man of the match.
Like a new signing
Mostly a good performance with a Chris Smalling header to win the game.
He did excellent to intercept a pass on the edge of their box in the lead up to the goal. He was very good.
Played well again. Useful having centre backs with goal threat.
His passing at the moment is really good
Looks better without captaincy, maybe. Weekend will be the big test though. Sheffield and Copenhagen were the last two games. Hopefully he continues his run and puts in a motm performance
Harry Beckenbuaer at it again. Well done
Credit it where it's due, very good game after an early mistake and a massive goal in what's already a real struggle for qualification.
If you protect him with a decent centre midfield there's a good defender there but, and i know i'm being negative, you could see a couple of instances tonight where he struggled to get back into position when they got behind us. Easily first choice along with Varane at the moment but long-term it's not sustainable unless we change our shape/tactics.

Happy for him. Only way to get fans on your side is to play well, it's that simple.
If he can find some form, then one thing you can rely on with Harry is...he can stay fit!
Getting some consistency with the back four selection would be invaluable.

Best thing that could have happen to him in hindsight.
