Jamie Redknapp has come out to blast the fans who criticized Harry Maguire during his poor form. He recently labelled them a disgrace for continuing to make fun of the Manchester United star, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, Maguire has been treated disgracefully by football fans in general, and it is not fair to see the amount of ridicule he has ensured since he joined MUFC.
Jamie added that Harry has shown he is an important player vs Sheffield United, even if he still might not be the answer long-term.
His words, “As a professional, I think he’s been treated disgracefully by football fans.”
“Everywhere he’s gone, his own fans, England fans, he’s been ridiculed and it’s not fair. The guy has shown today he’s an important player. Of course, he’s made mistakes, everyone makes mistakes, but I look at some of the other players who play for United and make mistakes and they don’t get a quarter of the stick he gets.”
“But if Harry Maguire does it it becomes a meme, and everyone starts talking about it. It’s completely unfair and you can see when he plays, he does make a difference.”
“Do I think he’s the answer long-term for Man Utd? I genuinely don’t, he’s been in great form of late, but I think he may have to make his way somewhere else. But still, for whatever reason he doesn’t deserve the criticism he gets. It’s been massively below the belt and disgraceful at times.”
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.
