he is so slow.

 

[Golden Nugget]

I can't stand watching him on the ball, every second he's in possession screams lower table defender from 10 years ago.

Defensive wise he’s done well recently and had a decent game today. My goodness when we need a goal and need some urgency he’s too slow on it, or just keeps passing back to Onana.

 

[lsd]

Not sure if it's a sign how much we have fallen the season and a half but Maguire is one of the few we have who can hold his head high.

 

[Robbie Boy]

I can't stand watching him on the ball, every second he's in possession screams lower table defender from 10 years ago.

Yup.

 

[klayton88]

I don't get all the praise around him today. He was the senior defender and he was as calamitous as the others in terms of positioning and leading the line.

 

[RedDevilCanuck]

Credit to him for a solid season.

But he had so much of the ball in the 2nd half. Martinez makes at least 3-4 line splitters there.

Slowly carrying the ball and rolling it to AWB or Casemiro will never work. I'd rather boot it up field and hope for a second ball. Jesus that's grim.

 

[RuudTom83]

Regardless of his own personal performance…no defence is ever going to play the high line with him at the centre of it!

So he is badly limiting the tactics the team can play.

 

[Golden Nugget]

Really happy he’s turned things around. One of the few that really shows he cares. Looked bad for their first goal, but that was due to AWB being horrendously out of position. My motm

 

[Stadjer]

At times he looked like he was trying to rebrand himself as an attacker. Actually made some good runs today. One of the better players today.

 

[Desert Eagle]

One of the few players that can be proud of his performance.

 

[T00lsh3d]

Has about 50% of the balls in this team. Bruno has the rest

 

[Tony247]

Stellar

 

[TempusFugit]

Has the heart of a lion. To come back from all the abuse and ridicule and still play like this for the club, I'm genuinely impressed. I hope he wins the FA cup with us, would be a fitting senf off.

 

[Red-17]

At times he looked like he was trying to rebrand himself as an attacker. Actually made some good runs today. One of the better players today.

Probably fed up of watching Rashford and Wan Bissaka dribble down the wing and cut back into traffic for the 100th time and decided he' just do things himself.

 

[Raw]

Have to say I'm a fan of his. No nonsense, just gets on with it.

 

[Strachan8]

Fair dinkum player. Some years back away to Palace, Rashford could be heard on TV calling Harry a ‘knobhead‘ after he didn’t chase a pass from Harry and was told off. Only one of them belongs at the club.

 

[Leftback99]

He's the one centre back we should keep this summer.

 

[Snow]

I think he's proved himself. Lots of problems in defense but he isn't one of them. Seemingly also one of the few players who has the mentality to play in a top team. Ole specifially mentioned him as one of the few strong characters in the group.

 

[BigBebe]

I think he deserves a lot of credit. He has taken so much stick but he was a leader out there today.

Also, at the end, he did not celebrate, he went straight over to shake the Coventry players hands (unlike Antony who is just a git)

 

[Idxomer]

Well, he's definitely not a championship level which you can't say about some of the other players based on their showing today.

Good performance.

 

[El-Manos]

Motm for me

 

[GazTheLegend]

Well, he's definitely not a championship level which you can't say about some of the other players based on their showing today.

Good performance.

My feeling too. Maguire is assuredly a Premier League player and absolutely dominated today.

Compared with the (now completely finished, surely) Casemiro, I know which one I'd take.

 

[kafta]

He did well today. And hes always available. Probably makes him our best center back.

 

[TheGame]

Him and Dalot are the only ones to come out with any credit after that.

He is still a problem if we want to play a higher line of defence. Unfortunately we have too many things to change this summer but we dare not offer him a new contract

 

[The Purley King]

Motm today for us.
Didn’t see the turnaround coming but he’s done very well by and large this season despite his limitations

 

[Ayush_reddevil]

I genuinely feel that under a good manager he will still have a decent career outside United. The current system is unplayable for a CB. Even Rio & Nesta would struggle playing for this manager

 

[Solius]

One of few who played decent.

 

[Oranges038]

Decent game.

Still too slow to play line breaking passes, time and time again he just ignored it.

 

[#07]

Maguire's distribution is maddening. There will be times when there is nobody around him, he can take the ball to chest and start playing, and he just heads it. Bizarre. The amount of touches he takes on the deck shows he doesn't trust himself with the ball. Rightly so. Maguire will never be a core part of a team that really wants to play out from deep.

 

[jem]

He's the one centre back we should keep this summer.

I never ever I imagined I would agree with this, but I think you might just be right. He’s been a rare beacon of positivity this season

 

[Telsim]

A professional. Takes some massive grit to turn things around. Well, relatively.

Could be a good squad option, if there's someone next to him to move the ball up the pitch.

 

[arthurka]

Gives a shit that in it self is enough to get into this team.

 

[Alemar]

He scored, and he was much better than Casemiro at the back. A good game from Harry

 

[lsd]

Noticed him going straight to the Coventry players after the last penalty.

Whatever else can be said about him he's a class act

 

[Sandikan]

The irony is we took the captaincy away from him, yet he's one of the few with the desire to do all he can do to help the team.
He was making better runs with the ball than the wingers.

 

[Rojofiam]

He's the one centre back we should keep this summer.

I've been saying it for some time

 

[Lyng]

He's the one centre back we should keep this summer.

He is absurdly slow on the ball. If we want to win the premier league he needs to be a bench player at best.

Spot on. Defensively he is very sound but boy is he slow on the ball.
