"I don't like that" - Andre Onana skewered for Harry Maguire rant after Borussia Dortmund defeat

Andre Onana has been criticised for his treatment of Harry Maguire during Manchester United’s 3-2 defeat to Borussia Dortmund.

The new United keeper showed he will bring more than just ball-playing ability to Erik ten Hag’s side during United’s defeat to Dortmund in Las Vegas.

Onana, who came on at half-time, has a history of scrutinising his colleagues, and Maguire was the latest recipient of the Cameroonian’s rage.

The England international played a slack pass to Christian Eriksen which gifted Dortmund a chance. Onana subsequently denied Sebastian Haller, before racing over to Maguire to berate him for his error.

Maguire, who was stripped of the United captaincy earlier this month, kept his cool, however many in the media have since come out in support of the defender.

Gabriel Agbonlahor throws support behind Maguire

Former Aston Villa and England international Gabriel Agbonlahor was critical of Onana’s outburst towards Maguire, who he deemed an “easy target”.

Speaking on TalkSPORT, Agbonlahor said: “First of all, Harry Maguire didn’t do anything wrong.

“He played a ball to a midfielder and the midfielder gave it away. And I feel like he’s an easy target. I don’t like that from Onana. Are you doing that to [Lisandro] Martinez? Are you running after [Marcus] Rashford like that? I don’t think you are.

“Maguire’s an easy target so I didn’t like the look of that. I understand it if it was a big mistake and it cost a goal or it’s Harry Maguire’s fault. Fair enough.

“But I want to see that same energy for every player.”

When asked whether Onana was merely replicating United legend Peter Schmeichel’s behaviour, Agbonlahor repeated: “As long as he does it to everyone.

“Maguire is going through that phase now with Man Utd fans on social media [saying] ‘leave, leave, leave.’

“He’s not going to react to [Onana] Harry Maguire. He’s thinking, ‘Keep a low profile because I want to fight for my place’. So I didn’t like it and it wasn’t even a mistake from Harry Maguire.”
