Maguire's close sources: 'Harry would thrive at Man City and Ruben Dias would struggle in United's defence'

Harry Maguire’s ‘close sources’ are furious at the criticism of his treatment at Man United. An unnamed source told ESPN: “Harry needs pace around him, but he hasn't had that.

“If you put Rúben Dias in the Man United defence and Harry in the City back-four, Dias would struggle and Harry would thrive. Harry hasn't had a good 12 months, but he hasn't been helped by those around him - coaches or players - so it's inevitable that his confidence and form have suffered.”

Maguire has seen himself benched this season by Erik ten Hag after the 4-0 loss to Brentford, with the gaffer opting to play Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez together for 5 out of the last 6 games.

Complaining will probably do Harry nor his representatives any good, as he has to work hard and maintain high performance levels to regain his place in the United starting line up this season.
