Manchester United captain Harry Maguire had his leadership skills questioned and been accused of ‘playing for himself’ in a scathing attack by former Red Devils defender Paul Parker. “Regarding the centre backs, people talk about bringing in a new partner for Harry Maguire,” Parker is quoted by The Sun . One costly moment in particular came in a shock 2-1 setback against bottom of the table Sheffield United when Maguire failed to clear his lines allowing Oliver Burke to score the winning goal. “The goal against Sheffield United,” Parker added. When they paid £80m, the club didn’t buy an £80m centre back, it was great business by Leicester City.”
