It’s brilliant from Ten Hag again. Lots of concerns last year that he gave Maguire the captaincy. He didn’t. He just didn’t take it off him.

Maguire as Captain, Maguire as first choice CB, Ronaldo…. All given a fair crack, all backed in public… but if they don’t meet the standard - gone. With not a single shit given to reputation.

When you're stripped of the captaincy, you know you gotta leave...

Loan being mooted.
Why are all these two-bob clubs who just got 9 figure transfer fees pretending they're broke?*

*It's rhetorical.

His qualities before United were being a strong old fashioned defender. You can maybe just about get away, in a possession based team that plays with a press and high line , with that with his lack of pace with some good decision making and positioning .

Countless times he’s been out of position or drags the defence out of positions, challenges a ball he has no chance of getting and opens up gaps behind him. I’ve seen him do it a few times for England, actually surprises me a bit that Southgate persists with him tbh.

Maybe it’s a psychological thing for him at this point and he will benefit from playing a deeper line in a less ball playing squad like moyes.

Personally I think he’s too far gone, his already stuck in mud pace has reduced, confidence shot to pieces and sometimes struggles to even do the basics. Anything more than 20+ million pounds for him and we would have done well. (Though I would happily let him go on a free just to get the his stench out of the dressing room)
