and Varane, so So Lindelof and Maguire played today, you had Maguire on the right and Lindelof on the left, which we used to see them standing on opposite sides of each other. Ten Hag said to UFABET

“It’s not with me. (where Maguire has to play on the left), not this season. Because the angle isn’t good for Harry. If he plays on the left side It’s difficult for him to defend wide areas with his left foot. But I think he’s more capable when playing on the right side.

Another concern is when Maguire decides to to rush out of the backline in order to win challenges, which isn’t always successful and harms their defensive structure. Those at Carrington are worried that may cost them in the future, especially if United are caught cold on the counter-attack against a pacey side.
