Manchester United defender, Harry Maguire has come out to share how he bounced back from his exile from the MUFC team to become the Premier League’s Player of the Month. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, it is impossible to never be benched throughout your career as a footballer, so he was always ready to be patient until the manager deems him worthy to start matches again.
Maguire added that the support he has received since his form picked up has been amazing, and he intends to reward his supporters with more good performances.
His words, “In football you don’t go through a 15-year career without being sat on the bench at all. Last season probably was the first time in my career where I’ve had to do that. I said to myself I’d remain patient, I’d do everything I can off the field when I’m not playing to help the lads, because I play for this club for it to be successful, whether I’m playing or not. Every day I came to training, tried to drive the standards, drive the training, to make sure we were working at an intensity that enabled us to get three points. By doing that, I enabled myself to stay fit, stay ready, stay in a good, positive mindset and be ready to take my chance when it came.”
“The support has been amazing, ever since I’ve come in and played this season. They’ve been amazing with me. I’ve really felt the love and the support on the pitch, and it’s given me great confidence and belief in myself to go and perform well and help the team.”
WOW.
Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.
Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.
Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.
The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992, beating Nottingham Forest 1–0 in the second to win that competition for the first time as well.
