Jamie Carragher has told Harry Maguire that he has a “lack of authority” in the Manchester United dressing room and urged him to front up to the task at hand.
The defender was booed by England fans on Tuesday when his name was read out in the line-up announcement before the national team’s friendly with the Ivory Coast. This was roundly condemned post-match by his international teammates and Three Lions boss Gareth Southgate.
United are now outside contenders for a top four finish having crashed out of Champions League to Atletico Madrid in the Round of 16 earlier this month. Maguire was one of the players who bore the brunt of heavy criticism from club supporters in the wake of this.
