Maguire is the opposite of a villain currently. He's one of Man U's best performers

Please I need that meme of dog in glasses giving sarcastic view. That’s how the super eagles goal keeper will be looking at you right now. Na direct threat you just issue the goal keeper. Threats of own goals and assists on the wrong end of the field.
