Harry Maguire lacked in Roy Keane's eyes

Former Manchester United player Roy Keane mentioned the lack of Harry Maguire. The 26-year-old defender is still considered to have one or two weaknesses.

Maguire was bailed out by United from Leicester City for £ 80 million. With this award, he holds the most expensive defender status in the world.

Maguire must solve the problem in the MU back line. They conceded 54 goals, the highest number among the top six teams.


Since joining Man United, manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has always presented him as a major player in four Premier League matches.

However, United's move at the start of the season was also not very good. The Red Devils Fortress is now stuck in eighth place with 5 points.



United's defense is still in the spotlight because once, a blank card is recorded, especially during Chelsea's 4-0 KO in the opening match.

In an interview with ITV, Keane said that at his current age, Maguire should no longer make fundamental mistakes. His new player status is considered Keane not an excuse.

"I think (Maguire) is good, he is good with the ball, but in defense, it seems ... I still have one or two question marks for him," Keane said. quoted by Dailymail.

Keane gave an example when Manchester United were defeated 2-1 by Crystal Palace in the third week of the English League. In this match, Maguire failed to read the movements of Jordan Ayew who was finally able to run free without being watched before finally hitting the ball in David De Gea's goal.

"When I turn around, I always worry about speed, I still remember Crystal Palace's first goal, which is not doing the basic work of defending the surface of the game." "He's 26 years old now, and do you care if you have to show him this mistake," Keane said.

MU will face former Maguere club Leicester City in the Premier League this weekend. Duel will be held at Old Trafford.
