Maguire: 'All eyes are on you at United'

HARRY Maguire has reflected on a 'difficult' few seasons at United, but he now believes he's performing well for his club and he's relishing playing for England this summer.

Maguire endured a poor 2021/22 as the Reds sacked Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and recorded just 58 points in the league. He then slipped down the pecking order during Erik ten Hag's first season in charge as Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane developed a formidable partnership.

He made eight league starts last term and was eventually stripped of the captaincy, however, he's enjoyed a renaissance in this campaign and he's enjoying his football again.

Although Maguire could have departed from Old Trafford last summer, he stayed and fought for his place, which has seen him force his way back into the plans of Ten Hag.

Maguire is set to start for England at this summer's European Championship and he discussed the criticism he's received in an interview with journalists.

"There's loads of people who probably don't think I should be in the [England] squad. There's millions of people that think I should be," he told The Times.
