GET A MOVE ON, HARRY

United outcast must hurry out door to save career

- CHRIS MCKENNA

IF the message wasn't clear enough by the splinters in his backside from sitting on the Manchester United bench, Southgate's surely Gareth words will have resonated with Harry Maguire.

The time to move on from Old Trafford is now. For the first time not only is his club career at stake, but also his England one.

Three Lions boss Southgate has shown patience with Maguire's lack of football and kept him as his preferred pairing alongside John Stones for the World Cup, and until this month.

But before last week's game against North Macedonia, and after, Southgate's statement was pretty clear.

There's competition now at centre-back for England for the first time since Maguire took hold of the shirt.
