Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira has defended Gareth Southgate\u2019s decision to have Manchester United captain Harry Maguire in England squad for Qatar 2022 World Cup.<\/p>\n

According to Vieira, the United centre back deserves a place in England\u2019s World Cup squad.<\/p>\n

Pundits have slammed Southgate for the decision, saying that Crystal Palace\u2019s Marc Guehi should have been listed instead of Maguire.<\/p>\n

\u201cRegarding Marc, what he has to do is to keep being consistent with his performances,\u201d Vieira told the press ahead of Crystal Palace\u2019s clash against Nottingham Forest.<\/p>\n

\u201cMarc, if you compare him to Maguire, the difference is that Maguire knows [things] that international level which Marc doesn\u2019t know yet.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe manager [Southgate] has to make a decision about what he wants for that tournament.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe manager knows the player better than we do.\u201d<\/p>\n
