Cristiano's a magnificent player and magnificent character to have around us. I know what it's like to have a lot of media speculation around myself. But he takes the majority of it. Everything he does is scrutinized to the nth degree.
He added:
That's what you get when you play for this club, the size of the club. On the other hand, when things are good, you get a lot of praise, so that's football, that's the sport that we play. Obviously there's a line that can be crossed and we can do a little bit better in this country to enable that.
What is his net worth?
Despite the difficulties Maguire faced in pushing Manchester United forward, he is within the top 10 earners in Manchester United. Furthermore, The Times reports that his net worth is estimated to be £17 million.
