The defender defends himself! Maguire wants to share the blame for Manchester's poor performance

Manchester United's poor performance last season is undeniable. With a terrible sixth place in the table, Cristiano Ronaldo's last years with the team that saw him rise as a football icon have been a nightmare, and it seems that it will not end soon.

Since the arrival of Dutch coach Erik ten Hag, many players (including Ronaldo) have disappeared from the line-up. Of course, the decision to leave Ronaldo on the bench is the most controversial but there are also other players affected by the arrival of the Dutch who made Ajax one of Europe's best teams.

Especially in the team's defense, since it practically seems like another team compared to what most of us were already used to seeing last season. With Raphael Varane fit, the Dutch coach has preferred to use the Argentine, Lisandro Martinez, as the Frenchman's partner at center back.

From the bench he defends himself

The most affected by this decision has been the English player Harry Maguire, who the press from England reports does not feel comfortable assimilating all the blame for the poor performance of United's defense. The central defender considers that the other responsible is David de Gea, who has not been criticized in the same way as him.
