‘I’ll rate the next manager by how fast he benches Harry Maguire;’ Man United fans have had enough of Maguire’s
After his latest poor performance for the club, Manchester United fans have demanded that Harry Maguire be stripped of the captain’s armband.
Maguire made two costly errors as they drew 1-1 at Burnley, who are currently in last place in the Premier League.
Raphael Varane went for the opener, but VAR overturned the call as Maguire, who was standing offside, impeded Jay Rodriguez’s run.
United took the lead through Paul Pogba, but Burnley equalized just two minutes later.
Wout Weghorst deftly turned Maguire before slipping in Rodriguez, who held off United’s captain to equalize and secure a 1-1 draw.
Later in the game, Maguire was booked for deliberately pulling down Rodriguez as he was about to run in on goal, prompting controversy about whether he should have been sent off for depriving a goal-scoring opportunity.
United fans have slammed Harry Maguire’s performance on social media, with one fan dubbing him ‘Burnley’s man of the match.’
One fan has requested that whoever becomes Manchester United’s permanent manager replace Harry Maguire: ‘I’ll rate the next manager by how fast he benches Maguire and strips him of captaincy.’
Another said: ‘Get that armband off Harry Maguire as well, he’s going to make more costly errors like that shocking one tonight.’
United fan page Stretford Paddock said: ‘Maguire just isn’t good enough,’ while another user said: ‘Harry Maguire is the worst signing in this club’s history.’
Another commented: ‘Harry Maguire robbed Varane of a goal and was at fault for the Burnley goal. Get this fraud out my club.’
Another user posted: ‘Harry Maguire really cost Varane a goal, clean sheet, and Man Utd the 3 points. And he’s the captain.’
Mark Goldbridge from fan channel the United Stand posted: ‘I’d be fuming with Maguire if I’m Varane for that. He was scoring the goal anyway and Maguire doesn’t need to do it.’
Tekker360 hit out at Maguire for his mistake leading up to Burnley’s goal as he said: ‘Harry Maguire makes the players around him better. For example, he made Weghorst looks like Messi.’
Man United fans were not the only people to hit out at Maguire, as Rio Ferdinand branded Maguire’s performance as ‘poor’ and said he was ‘lucky not to be sent off’.
