Harry Maguire’s error left Man Utd fans fuming

Maguire inexplicably tried an outside of the boot pass before the goal

When Man United had the ball, Aaron Wan-Bissaka passed it to Maguire.

The center-back then puzzlingly attempted to pass outside of his boot and into the path of a teammate.

The ball was cut out for Bilbao by Inigo Lekue, and it eventually found its way to Oihan Sancet.

The ball then went in off the post and gave Bilbao the lead when he sent a sharp pass into Nico Williams, who then pushed the ball past a rushing Tom Heaton.

Maguire was also booed by fans following the error.

Journalist Sameul Luckhurst also claimed that United academy product Dan Gore, who is 12 years younger than Maguire, had been berating him for failing to move for a pass.

The defender has already received criticism from Andre Onana during preseason after making a mistake in a 3-2 loss to Borussia Dortmund.

Taking to Twitter, one furious fan said: “Maguire is dreadful. The fridge can’t put in one half decent performance in a friendly.”

A second wrote: “Different season, same Harry Maguire.. 😭.”

“Maguire what the hell was that,” asked a third.

Maguire has been linked with the Old Trafford exit after being stripped of the armband.

In respect to this one fan argued: “I like Harry Maguire, but I think if he had any self respect he’d leave Manchester United.”
