Jaap Stam lays blame at Harry Maguire's Man Utd team-mates for criticism of "easy target"

Former Manchester United star Jaap Stam has laid the blame for Harry Maguire 's struggles at the door of his team-mates at the Red Devils.

Maguire was booed ahead of England 's win over the Ivory Coast on Tuesday in the latest low point of his season. The defender's form has nosedived since Euro 2020, with some questioning whether he should be stripped of the United captaincy.

Despite his poor performances, Maguire has remained a regular starter under both Ralf Rangnick and Gareth Southgate for United and England. Many of Maguire's Three Lions team-mates came out in full support of him following the jeers that met him at Wembley.
