A brief summary:
He was the best CB at Hull and the best CB at Leicester. He was an English international. Did we pay too much for him? Possibly, but given that we had Lindelöf and four sicknotes and there weren’t too many other available options, I tend to think it was worth it paying over the odds. That’s history, so bringing up that in a thread about Harry Maguire present and future is frankly stupid.
For me, he played okayish but with uncertainty in his first few months here, and then played himself warm and was one of the better CBs in the league in the latter half of the season. He started terribly this season, like everyone, but didn’t pick himself up as quickly as most others. He has been more sloppy and prone to passivities and mindbugs this season than last, that is, until the last month. These last two games he has been at the best I’ve seen him so far. Here’s to that after getting used to United and overcoming The Greek Police Ordeal, this is his level and we’re going to get a lot more joy from him. I had him as our best CB last year, but I think Linddelöf has been our beat CB this season. The best is of course when they max at the same time.
