Even if you were once the captain, as long as your performance declines, your captain's armband will be taken away.
Since joining Manchester United for €80 million in 2019, Maguire's performances have been disappointing, except for the first year. His poor defensive displays have frustrated fans, and there have even been extreme comments from some fans due to his subpar performances. As a result, Maguire's situation at Manchester United has been far from ideal in recent years.
With Maguire's form not improving, there have been discussions within Manchester United about changing the captaincy. Although Maguire was the club captain on paper last season, in reality, due to his substitute role, the on-field captaincy responsibilities were more often given to another player, Bruno Fernandes. Therefore, there were speculations that Maguire would be stripped of the captain's armband.
As expected, Maguire's captaincy has been taken away. While he is disappointed with this decision, he respects the coach and the team's choice and is already considering leaving Manchester United.
This is another significant decision made by Coach Ten Hag since becoming the head coach of Manchester United. However, this time it won't face too many obstacles, as it's evident to most that Maguire has lost his place in the starting lineup. Let's wish both parties the best in their respective endeavors after parting ways. |
