“I think it is too late at club level for Maguire. He needs this to be his final season at Manchester United and start afresh somewhere else. And now it is England’s problem. When I watched Maguire in the last two games, I felt sorry for him.
“It’s not a good look for any sports person. Sympathy will not get him back. Criticism of his performance against Germany is valid and justified and Gareth Southgate must assess if Maguire is mentally right for a World Cup.
