Transcript

00:00 I'm very happy Harry Maguire is here. He has to fight for his position.

00:03 Realistically, what do you think he can expect in terms of game time?

00:07 What opportunities will there be for him?

00:09 It's up to him.

00:25 H has come under some really unnecessary scrutiny.

00:32 He's probably been scapegoated a little bit in terms of

00:36 the way the team have gone over recent times.

00:40 But it's a joke. I've never known a player treated the way he is.

00:43 Not by the Scottish fans, by our own commentators, pundits, whatever it is.

00:50 They've created something that's beyond anything I've ever seen.

00:53 What's it like to be a centre-half?

01:03 It's been tough. I want to play games.

01:06 I want to feel important to the club and I want to feel important to the rest of the team.

01:10 You know what I expect from a centre-half?

01:13 He can do it.

01:16 I've told you many times before, he has the ability to do it.

01:20 So now he has to show it.

01:26 What's it like to be a centre-half?

01:30 He's a great player.

01:34 He's a great player.

01:38 He's a great player.

01:43 What's it like to be a centre-half?

01:51 He's playing much more proactive, in possession, stepping in,

01:58 passing vertical, defending also on the front foot,

02:03 also stepping in, defending forward.

02:07 Very confident in the duels.

02:11 I think he's dominating.

02:14 At the right moment, he puts in the aggression, dominating his opponents.

02:18 And then you see, you get also rewarded.
