'There's a lot going on in Maguire's life and we sometimes forget that' - Redknapp defends under-fire England & Man Utd man

Jamie Redknapp has jumped to the defence of Harry Maguire after the England defender's poor form continued with a first-half red card against Denmark on Wednesday.

Maguire picked up a booking inside the first five minutes of the Nations League match at Wembley, before he took a poor touch in the 31st minute and compounded his error by lunging in on Kasper Dolberg and earning a second yellow card.

Denmark would take the lead minutes later when Christian Eriksen converted from the penalty spot.

The sending off continued a torrid spell for Maguire, who has seen his Manchester United side concede nine goals in three games to start the Premier League season, including a 6-1 thrashing at the hands of Tottenham.
