Harry Maguire 'feared for life' during arrest in Greece

An emotional Maguire, who broke down during the interview, said hearing the guilty verdict was"horrible" and that he"couldn't quite believe it".

"It is such a huge honour to be captain of Manchester United - something I am really proud of," he said."It is a massive privilege to play for the club, never mind captain. The driver was"20 minutes late" and Maguire said the group were tired and planning to head back to the villa. They told the driver to take them back to the villa and planned to go to the hospital, but Daisy recovered"pretty quickly".

Maguire said:"We got down on our knees, put our hands in the air. And they just started hitting us. They got one of my hands in the handcuff. They were hitting my legs, saying my career's over - 'no more football; you won't play again'."At this point I thought there's no chance these are police. I've no idea who they are. So I tried to run away. I had one hand in the handcuff - I was moving my hand.

This is bullshit! My friends were out there & said Maguire was acting up all night.he saw his sister being picked up off the floor as she was wasted after drinking all day,he took offence & kicked one of the guys, who was gay in the head! He was too drunk to & should be in prison

If you check the FO website they report bars and restaurants close at midnight! Masks to be worn outside and groups of 4 or 6 only. What did the local police say about that? Is it enforced?

Sounds so scripted and not genuine at all.

Meh. BS..ing thug.

Boo-boo! We can all kick a fuckin' ball, man! Of course, that degenerate Dirk Bogarde claimed t' have kicked one wot turned out t' be one of several detached skulls ob kids he'd bombed. He at least saw funny side.

Why does he remind me of Ricky butcher🤔

No doubt back-handers will ensue, over the next 12 months, to avoid a guilty verdict at the re-trial. That appears to be the norm for professional footballers, who commit assaults etc. OK if you can afford it, unlike the vast majority of the population.

Can I smell bullshit?

No one cares. A typical British drunk yob abroad

The man's a clown🤡

Course he did. Playing the victim now is he? How predictable

All this BBCNews publicity for a celeb yet nothing on the killing of a 5 year old? Thanks Fran Unsworth and her boy blunder Richard Burgess.

You can tell he’s lying his lips are moving - that’s a load of total 🐂💩

No bruising or marks on him! I’m saying the Greek police are angels but it appears he lied about the beatings and I wouldn’t put it past him saying how much?

Sorry still laughing.

Binging on to many Liam Neeson movies ?

Looks a little unsettled I’d say....🤔 oh yes - “guilty”... that’s the word I was looking for

No bruises on the legs, to really prove it I'll wear shorts 🤦‍♂️

Harry if you were black

So he feared for his life, then said do you know who I’m am.

We didnt see what they actually did. But I decided to start a fight anyway and bribe some cops for good measure.

Stop peddling Maguire’s lies. FakeNews PRSpin

A student of the Dominic Cummings school of lies academy

🤮

stop emabarrassing yourselves already

Hahahaha cheap lawyers excuses

Of course he did...🤭

Why you defending this man, he’s a thick as pig shit footballer, as much a hooligan as some of the fans

I wasn’t there, I don’t ‘know’ what happened, but his story now doesn’t seem right and sounds like a second defence. Like taking a drive to test eyesight.

Bollocks he got caught, should have been jailed and should never be a role model to youths ,Sack the c€,t

Who gives a shit. He’s just a footballer who broke the law. Why is he being treated like he is a survivor of torture or something. What a joke lol.

So scared he left his fiancé and sister behind when he ran off?

Chelsea playing football manager while our captain is grovelling to the bbc. Ffs man!!

He’s a violent drunk, do the time and quit acting like a juvenile twit.

You all will miss Magalluf pretty soon!

Needs an eye test? Head to Barnard Castle! Ah the Cummings defence. He did what any reasonable multimillionaire footballer would do.

Load of bollocks

Are his legs made of iron? If he received a bad beating to his legs, surely there would be evidence to prove this?

Did something ,,, didn't actually see anything !!!. I see 🤔.

He has done a Prince Andrew and buried himself in the mire even deeper

And so does King George III

In Porto last year I had to listen to English fans tell me it wasnt their fault they got in a fight with police and it wasnt their fault they got in a fight in a nighclub and it wasnt their fault they lost their phones again like in Malta.

He's gone full Jussie

Imagine if he was a famous footballer

What a wally

No marks on his legs 🤔

Can a millionaire not afford blood tests etc to see what Daisy was injected with? Wouldn't that put any doubt to bed that something happened to her one way or the other?

a fucking peasant, earning millions, talking to an ignorant journalist, click baiting, being promoted by the most corrupted company in the UK.... Yeah, thats the state of media in Great Britain

Lock him up why is he getting air time a black footballer would’ve got slandered

If it was Pogba or Sterling,?! It will be something else

They don’t call him SlabHead for nothing. He isn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer.

😂😂😂😂😂😂 'feared for his life'

Have to say I don't really care. It's his business. Popping this up on the news when there are fires, hurricanes, oil spills, sickness, etc. Let the story go.

Image cleansing exercise? 😅

If people break the law they should be arrested.

Is anyone buying this ridiculous charade? Mate, just admit you were off your tits, things got a bit out of hand, and take your medicine. The fans will still love you - and probably more - anyway.

Sounds genuine to me and it would be very silly to make up a story like this rather thank take responsibility but like you, I don't know what actually happened

Harry Maguire set for Greek brawl re-trial after appeal lodged and conviction quashed, say Man UtdHARRY MAGUIRE is set for a retrial after lodging his appeal against his conviction for a Mykonos brawl. A Manchester United spokesman insisted their skipper now has no conviction or criminal record… If you punch a cop then try to bribe him to let you go whilst telling them that you are filthy rich does not entitle you to a retrial, it would serve him right if he gets time inside for time wasting. It's a case of Man United waving their monetary clout, not innocence or guilt.
