💭 Fabrizio Romano with a special message for Harry Maguire on Instagram:

Harry Maguire deserves a special post, in my opinion. Might sound as a different one… but I believe it’s worth it, for football fans and not only.

Just few days after his late goal at Anfield, becoming Man United’s unexpected hero (once again…), Harry’s story from these years keeps going round in my mind.

It’s too easy now to forget what happened, what he’s had to go through for years and years since he joined Manchester United for that huge transfer fee in 2019.

But players don’t control the transfer fee… that’s just about the clubs. They’re not robots. They usually try their best to perform, and sometimes it doesn’t work.

Harry didn’t have any responsibility for that fee… but the level of abuse, attack, stupid posts, “memes” and unfortunately much more on all social media platforms has been something unprecedented. It was horrible.

Imagine every week, getting abused just because your performances are not the best ones at your job. It can happen to anyone… but with Harry, what he suffered (and he wasn’t the only player underperforming, not at all…), that was way too much. That was unacceptable.

Also, I’m sure 50% of people attacking him especially from abroad didn’t even follow or watch the games. It was just easy method: turn on your account, make fun of Maguire. But football is a lovely jungle sometimes.

Harry never complained. Never overreacted. Never commented or hit back to anyone. Hard work. Keep going. Never giving up. Follow your dream to be Man United player at best level possible.

No more captain’s armband? Also no problem. Stay focused. Help your teammates. Play at your best and give 100% in every game or training session.

Maguire wasn’t a terrible player back then, he’s not a Ballon d’Or today. It’s about moments. Football, sport, life. A story valid for all the football fans, players, also other sports’ lovers… and normal people.

After Anfield goal, he said: “I’m so happy because I’ve been in love with this club for years… and because for one day, our fans can be happy. They deserve it

Let people talk. Let people criticise. Don’t give up on your dreams. Work harder. Give your best, always… and then beautiful things will come. ❤️👊🏼
