United Kingdom Latest News,United Kingdom Headlines

The Manchester United defender has a reputation for being bright, solid, dependable, a safe pair of hands. What went wrong?

They are the kind of headlines that cause hearts to pound for football executives. “Premier League star arrested after drunken brawl.” And, on this occasion, there would be a detail that made it worse. Much worse. A police officer had allegedly been struck by the player during the incident.

Wtf... model professional?

Thank Allah this was not pogba

How the hell is he a model professional? Just because he plays for Man u. The media have been so quick to slaughter so many other players for non criminal offences but finding excuses for Maguires thuggish behaviour.

🤡

Too much money on their hands than common sense. How can football clubs justify £190,000 weekly salary Honestly these outrageous wages need to stop

Model what!

Can you imagine if a Black Player was in a Greek Prison.... the British Media would have a field day..... I’d bet they would be digging up shit on their great great grandparents!!!

itebi_

He’s really not a model professional is he

You lost me at 'a safe pair of hands' have you seen his no look defending

I see your 'model professional', and raise you a MODEL professional

Model professional?

This is a disgraceful headline. Anyone who attacks a Police officer should be condemned yet the Guardian want to make it out this model professional is hard done by. Nothing but a thug.

Maybe a model in the Media Markt .. stupid fridge

Who are you implying would be on the shortlist of trouble makers?

the media agenda omds. imagine if this was sterling or pogba man. icba

Kys

Model my fucking arse.😱

Blame the EU

Yall need to sort yourself out lmao. Racist bafoons

Lol... I can imagine if this was a black player Model Professional my a**

Perhaps he’s not so ‘model’ as you try to tell us. Perhaps he’s a bit of a thug..,

Model professional

Model... Loool

How gutted is your editor that Raheem Sterling wasn't involved in this?

British media racism is so subtle and yet obvious 🙄

Manure💩fc , sky sports rupert murdock ...propaganda machine started turning the wheels already to claim him innocent and make him the victim

Disgusting

Pay to read this fucking garbage! 😂😂

Is this a news about Harry maguire getting arrested or is it an farewell speech for him?

Model professional ahah just assaulted, allegedly abused verbally and tried to bribe a police officer! Should pay for that...

Model professional 🤔

No body is above the law

model professional? 🤣🤣🤣🤮🤮🤮 he’s an idiot.

White privilege. He should be given the same treatment you lot usually give to the black footballers.

model professional 👇

Model professional because he is white and called Harry. Fixed it for u. buyacoffee

Maybe he's not a model professional

I can answer that. He is one of many hot-headed males that cannot control their tempers.

I've made mistakes. I'm not famous tho.

Model professional?

The Guardian used to be a respectable newspaper. Now I'm not even sure if it's a newspaper.

I punched a cop once and model professional isn't something anyone commented.. I got sent to jail (not a true story but thats what would happen)

White privilege at its finest

United fan here, but your bias is really showing! Lol. And you wonder why people call you fake news. All we want is the objective facts so we can form our own opinions. We don't need you to tell us what to think.

DaveHytner this is utterly pathetic. just shameful.

Corrected Headline: How English professional footballer, Maguire lost his big head in a row with Greek police. You would have crucified anyone not English and White

Hi , because he thinks he is untouchable rich guy jk

Oya. Mumelipwa ngapi?

Because you dont know what those words mean

The comments are so dumb. Maguire hasn't done anything. He's not anywhere near a model professional as Rashford, but he's better than any Liverpool player and a lot of other captains.

🖕🏾

Have a day off will ya

I wonder if United are willing to pay another transfer fee to bring him back to England 😂

This is white privilege. English and white, therefore a model. If it was Sterling, this headline wouldn't exist for those charges.

What? Wow where does all these positive headlines go when its a dark skin player?

Shame on the for such biased writing

What a useless title. 😂😂

“Model professional”

You're mad with this headline.

How he’s become ‘model pro’? Why those who supposed to be role models and inspiring young generation can get away with so much leniency of law?

You are getting absolute pelters here

Charlatans every last one of you.

if this was sterling, it’d be on billboards and scream agenda

What earns you a card on the football pitch fetches you a police custody in the society pitch

LMAO if it was Sterling the headline would be completely different

Fools end.

A cracker cannot crack a cracker when two crackers are cracking a crack

Racists 📹

'Model professional' A black player would never, ever be described this way

Model professional!!!

Whatever his professional status, Harry Maguire should receive the appropriate justice for whatever he has actually done. Hope the trial will clarify allegations and facts about what happened.

Wow

Model pro? What?

All this after the barrage of shite your sports writers have written about Manchester City before and after the CAS case I sincerely hope your newspaper goes to the wall

You’re just blatantly racist

British media is so fucking racist

Bruhhhh

Fucking racist British media, et tu ?

Bias is staggering

How about.... “MAN UTD CAPTAIN DISGRACES HIMSELF IN BOOZE FUELED FIGHT WITH POLICE”

This reads like a PR piece for Maguire.

😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒

Model pro ?!

Lazy lazy journalism. Shame.

Model pro..perhaps if you talk about duties as a footballer(he'salso not that good)..but clearly a twat off duty. They are both separate.

DaveHytner pls make your next article make a lil bit more sense, if you can do that

justice4greekpolice Jail Maguire if found guilty. Bloody hell if a non-footballer was found guilty of that they’d be locked up for at least a year. Cronus must be turning in his grave, by the Gods of Olympus, Ulysses...I mean Harry must be punished lfc

How is he a model professional. If this was CHO or Sterling you'd be asking them to be removed from the England team

Shame on you’ll

“Model professional” uno. He got arrested for assualt.

He ain't gonna shag you mate

DaveHytner check your privilege bro

I find this article a bit odd. The rationale for Maguire being considered a model professional is the fact that he is that he left a club that he does not support and has no connection to apart from playing for them to join another team, without falling out with the manager.

What a headline. Being nice to a guy locked up for two nights after allegedly assaulting a police office. But your crucify a civil servant and made up stories - who didn’t break the law. Cess pit paper.

Imagine the headlines if this was Raheem Sterling? WhitePrivilege

Model my balls , son of bitc*

Lock him up and throw away the key..exactly the type of ‘brits abroad’ behaviour that decent people are ashamed of..pissed up, abusive and finish the night with a good old scrap..pathetic

Harry Maguire is a model professional after allegedly assaulting a police officer yet Sterling is a 'footie idiot' after buying his mum a house?

Obviously not a model professional if he’s assaulting officers is he? Stupid headline

At this point you lot are just doing this on purpose now, knowing it will drive traffic to you.

Was it because he is suspected of committing a crime?

Wow.....I’m sure every other club would get the same headline.....

Thought he kicked a ball didn’t know he was into air-fix

Fucking hell this is horrible

Thank God it's not sterling.

DaveHytner that article reads like a love letter. He's not gonna shag you mate

Has he got any gun tattoos?

👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 very very very bad

This reads as if his lawyer himself wrote this. He punched a cop and was arrested, raheem sterling bought him mum a house. How has Sterling copped more shit for that than maguire is for this

Give it a week 'former model professional...'

LMAOOOO

Maybe because he isn’t a model professional

Oh of course...

Self aggrandising idiocy

Involved himself in a mass brawl Assaulted a police officer Tried to bribe a police officer I think that just about covers it... but anyway, back to the ‘model professional’ narrative

The best part of this article is that it's covered a desperate and devastating issue with care, empathy and understanding and when given a chance to destroy a man instead gave him a fair hearing, whoever shames it shouldn't forget this is how the media should report! 👌

Honestly from all this I think a lot of people want to see Maguire get publicly flogged, shameless vague allegations here, horrible to see

This article was actually beautifully written and very true.

Model professional.? Who writes this shit ?

Take this article down

Racismo

By being a drunken prat, getting in a fight, assaulting arresting officers and then trying to bribe them... Hardly a model professional, more just another overpaid yob. Also sick of seeing the 'young lad' rubbish..he's 27.

Disgusting ..

Model professional? Gtfooh

He was smashing plates getting into the local customs that all

,😂😂😂😂

😏😏

Ah, of course. When the white boy gets in trouble it's all about how it's so out of character for him. Disgraceful journalism.

This is an odd way to pose the question . I would suggest a model professional wouldn't be on the lash in Greece in the first place.

'Reputation for being solid, dependable' He's shite.

Did his lawyer write this?

Y’all are idiots

Is model is a synonym for “ fridge face “ ?

How did he end up playing pro football for Man Utd and England is the more pertinent question.

ARE BRTISH JOURNALISTS XENOPHOBISTS AND RACISTS? IF IT WAS PAUL POGBA- BLACK, FRENCH your titles would be very different. Harry Maguire - model professional? Captain of one of the biggest clubs in the World acting like this during his holidays? MODEL PROFESSIONAL?

A

This article stinks!!! Almost every line of it. Ewwwwwww!!! Had to skip some paragraphs. They were that irritating. What's with the shower of complements

Where is the shame wallahi?

Model professional? Silly wankers

Stop

In other news, young man goes on holiday to Greece, gets drunk and has a fight. This is what happens on these islands. Whether they’re footballers or not. No excusing it whether you’re a footballer, plumber or schoolteacher !!

😂 whoever wrote this is filth

model professional, is it crack ?

Model professional 🤭😂🤣. His genes just sync along well with his club.

DaveHytner why are u bringing this up? There is huge difference between lil argument and breaking the law and getting arrested? What has maguire done for u to call him model? This is the type of bias racism bs people talk about in the media.

Now imagine this headline if it was Sterling or Pogba

Footballers or .. a.k.a - ‘spoilt brats’ ... that’s what they become when people idolise them as individuals instead of just being fans of the sport. 🤷🏽‍♀️

DaveHytner is such a coward.

The press in this country are something else 😔

vitazzo_ gabaritou

This headline is a joke.

Model professional? This my friends is called racial bias.

There's a war on white male in this country!!!

a model professional because hes mid and no one cares

'model' Natnai_ iAm_ZaQuaY Doyin_Dboss 6atet if it was Pogba now. They would have crucified him.

Doesn't sound a model professional to me!

Model proffessional? You simply cannot make this stuff up 😄.

Hey, you got ratioed: 1.44 at the time of this response (134 replies, 93 likes).

The phrase 'model professional' includes behaviour both on and off the pitch. With our drinking 'culture' very few UK pros actually meet that definition!

Model professional😂😂😂😂 Usually don’t assault police officers

literally kept telling people on twitter that they would sugar coat it for maguire but if pogba were involved he’d be dragged through the mud 😂

Naff Guardian article saying nothing

You guys are horrible people. If Harry Maguire was black you'd report this story in a different way.

what in the racist

how did what now?

This country man. Tiring. Imagine if it was Pogba that did this

See the way they write about maguire compared to sterling

Raheen Sterling too and got grief for shopping in Primark

Top trolling. 😭

Model professional? Really?

Anybody stop to think that these outlets use those buzz words on purpose to get more reaction - money? They certainly knew what would ensue from those choice words.

Garbage article.

Oooo smells like...?

Pedophile rings, Tom Hanks etc

If you actually want to talk about actually model professionals and leader why not look at someone like Wes Morgan. Funny that publications never seem to talk about him being a model professional

LosBlancos13_34 Model 😭

Fuck the English press 😷

I'm wondering what would have been the tittle and picture had it been sterling7 doin it

Ffs this bias just shows.... if this was Pogba he would be labelled as a potential terrorist.

This is awful.

And you have to ask? Brit thugs and ruffians get arrested all the time on the continent, you must remember being excluded from Europe during the eighties because of similar behaviour.

Man said 'model professional'... it was sterling or any other black fella it would be a different story. We move thou

So Harry Maguire who got drunk, assaulted a police the tried to bribe the police is a model professional but innocent black men like CHO who plays football with Sunday league kids or sterling who was a huge part of many anti racism campaigns within football are flops or thugs…

A piss-up in Manchester would have been better? Not exactly exotic but maybe safer? Although the mancity fans do spit vitriol.

By kicking fuck out of a police officer

arseblog doesn’t this feel like he’s not that kind of player?

Imagine the headline if it was Raheem Sterling! Utterly disgraceful that

You guys are fucking hypocrite. Not surprised 🤮

Model professional? What an utter disgrace!

He committed MULTIPLE crimes whilst intoxicated. . Not really the definition of 'model professional' is it🚮

Model professional? You’re embarrassing yourself.

Model professional 🥴

Xenophobic twat stfu

🤣🤣🤣😂😂 if this was pogba the headlines will be different

Model LMFAOOOOOOO just say he's english get on with it

W t f

British media never fails. Always cherry picking.

Fighting

Head that size but a brain like an olive

Gawd . Young . On holiday after a long stressful season ....

He's been assigned a Greek lawyer as he's been incapable of organising a defence

wes_chambers23 the headline would be different if it was a black footballer

Just say you hate black footballers and keep it moving

What a picture being painted by this journalist.

Would love to see the same energy for Raheem Sterling

“Model pro” = Maguire, Rooney, John Terry etc. All louts to some extent but ya know... “Troublesome” personalities? Raheem Sterling, Paul Pogba, Daniel Sturridge, Ashley Cole. Hmmm 🤔🤔🤔

damn IMAGINE the headline had this be sterling.....

Wow just wow of course Maguire can NEVER do wrong.. Shame on you

The state of that title. Hypocrites

Model professional? My arse.

Well that means he's not a model professional? What idiot wrote this?

Disgusting headline.

Literally how is it this hard to NOT be racist?

mrdanwalker I’m assuming you think this is “tasty” too?

“Model professional”

We gonna find out peoples.

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

What headline would you have given if sterling7 did this?

Non drinker Jimmy Milner is a model professional. Drunk Harry Maguire is not. Hope this helps.

LOOOL

Man U supporters hoping he gets 6 years

Everyone kicking like there perfect people. Got to love the guardian

White supremacists thats what you are

Model professional is a funny way of spelling ‘white and British’.

Model?

Bloody obvious, alcohol! Give him a break, what club have not had a player going 'rogue'? Problem is our British culture to overdrink (me included)

He’s a thug ... you’ve dressed him up has a hero cos he’s scored a few goals here & there

The minute somebody signs for United they become cunts. Keane, Rio, Ronaldo, Rooney, Tevez, Young and hundreds more.

Because

Just imagine the vitriol from the British press if this was Mario Balotelli or Raheem Sterling taken into custody. The hypocrisy in coverage is just sickening!

Booze

Potentially only one night out this year and Maguire is in bother. Inviting his brother and lifelong friends asking for trouble. Childhood bonds run deep increasing the chance of conflict.

He got drunk had a fight then tried to bribe his way out. That's how he is in a jail cell. Are we the reporters for the guardian now?

Let me save you a lot of scrolling readers: Manchester United fans, defending him, non-Manchester United fans hanging, drawing and quartering him.

Model professional!!!! I swear Sterling had more negative press for buying his mum a house than Maguire after assaulting a police officer. buyacoffee

Just 8 days ago me and my gf watched in amusement how a bunch of brits made complete twats of themselves outside a bar in Athens. My gf managed to rein them in by warning them about the Greek police. Turns out they were fine lads, but the booze...

‘Model professional’ ‘not who you’d expect to be involved at United’ just say he’s white and move on 👍

Alcohol

Your headline wouldn’t have been the same if it were Pogba eh

'model' 😂🤣

Harry maguire sends message to his teammates after arrest

Delete before it's too late and you get fired.

It’s likely because he has misguided loyalty to some friends (aka hangers-on) and got involved in something he should know to walk away from.

MoDeL pRoFeSsIoNaLs don’t usually get arrested for assault

I think it's pretty simple.🍻🍷🥃🍻🍷🥃🍻🍷🥃🍻🍷🥃🍻🍷🥃🍻🍷🥃

Some Liverpool fans pissed him off, what is the problem

'Model'🤣😭😭.

he slipped (on the Greece) and fell in a giant Trifle

Hardly a model

as if no-one took one beer too many...quit your agenda

Entitled. That's how.

If this were Pogba or any other black player you wouldn’t be calling him a model professional.

Less of the model/role-model I think!

?

'model professional' yeah?

Model professional? But if it was pogba it would’ve been ‘nuisance’ or something like that. Fuck the media

This guy is an asshole

What a complete twit. Youngsters aspire to people like Harry and this is the example he sets. 🤔 It'll all be mitigated with depression, too much to drink, someone spiked my drink.........wait and see.

I'm not entirely convinced that a man, albeit a rather well-known man, having a pissed up scuffle with police is particularly newsworthy.

Drinking for sport in this country has to come to an end. It’s not flattering nor is it necessary.

Has he been set up so they have an excuse to sell him? 👀

Roy Keane's view is going to be epic

Not a good model after few beers and ouzos.

He's a good boy. Loves his parents, the pope and alcohol.

“There goes the neighbourhood”, seasoned Mykonosians sigh! A matter of time 🤷🏽‍♂️

Drink?

Wee slabhead...

Did he get wheel clamped for being statuesque near a double yellow line?

A late tackle?

I can’t wait to see how Sky Sports spin this to be everyone’s fault but his.

Because he’s an arrogant young man with too much money.

The United lawyer team will be speeding over as we speak

He was pissed?

The police arrrested him and drove him there.

Alcohol.

Frustration of not getting a second penalty in the Europa Semi-final.

By ‘model’ do you mean Tonka Toy?

Model professional? He just got arrested for assault and then made it worse with bribery.

typical man u remember scum of 92 all liars, adulterers, druggies, wife beaters & cheats.

is model professional a synonym for dense

Because he's not such a model professional?

All model pro's are going on holidays abroad right now.

Dont need to read his life story first
