They have nowhere near 1 billion fans and they dont claim it themselves.

The 'surveys' they used to make huge fan followings were pulled apart at the time.

Agreed, I'd say worldwide Barca and Real definitely have more supporters. Plus with the Argentine and Brazilian clubs like River Plate, Boca, Palmeiras, Flamengo etc it's hard to quantify the level of european football - Barca and Real apart - shown in those countries on a regular basis. As you know there are South American ex-pats across the world in North America, Latin countries and caribbean of course.

Honestly though, Maguire is a bit of an inspiration, you can have the turning radius of a cruise ship, the speed of a snail and still find yourself playing as a regular starter in the EPL.

He's not an elite defender but he's made to look much worse than he is by how often that midfield leaves him exposed. He and Shaw were almost flawless at the Euros, yet clown mode at United, and it's not like Southgate is a tactical genius or anything.

No he should not. United should move on from him. Overrated.

They'd be mid-table but for his heroics this season.
