Nations League: Will Harry Maguire be relieved of his England duties? 

    Gareth Southgate got what he wanted from England in terms of energy and ambition, but he got the opposite of what he didn't need from Harry Maguire and goalie Nick Pope

    However, England was not particularly good in the first half at Wembley, allowing Germany too much time on the ball, but they were able to produce clear chances when they broke through Germany's press on the counter.

    England was two goals behind and facing a third consecutive loss before Luke Shaw scored their first goal. Mason Mount added one more, and Harry Kane converted a penalty to bring England in striking distance of their first victory in six matches.

    Maguire's season has gotten off to a terrible start, as he has lost his position in the Manchester United lineup under Erik ten Hag despite being the club captain. 

    Although he still supports Three Lions manager Gareth Southgate, blunders like the one he committed on Monday night will not assist his case.

    It was an exciting match under the Wembley arch, but Maguire will want to forget the beginning of the second half quickly. 

    The defender was adrift as he delivered the ball directly to Jamal Musiala on the edge of the penalty box before bringing him down and conceding a penalty following a quick VAR review.

    Maguire was primarily responsible for Germany's lead as he carelessly fouled for Ilkay Gundogan's penalty, then lost possession and was out of position as the visitors' counter-attack culminated in a sublime Kai Havertz strike.

    Southgate supports Maguire against all evidence, but it is becoming increasingly detrimental to the player.

    Gareth Southgate declined to blame Harry Maguire or Nick Pope for their costly errors during England's 3-3 Nations League tie with Germany.

    After the pain and mediocrity of Hungary and Italy, England's performance was a move in the right direction, as seen by the satisfaction of their fans.

    Meanwhile, Southgate did speak on Maguire and his penalty blunder; he said, "It is hard to tell from the side. The giving away of possession is the problem, but as a group, they have really come together this week. It has been a tough period for the team, but they have grown."

    On the question of picking and dropping players, Southgate clarified, "That's always going to raise debate but I think in these moments we've got to back our best and our most experienced players unless we're in a situation where it's almost untenable and impossible to pick them."

    Harry Kane comes to Harry Maguire's defence

    England captain Harry Kane later stated that Maguire sustained a 'decent' injury late in the game against Germany, causing him to play on 'one' leg.

    England is winless in their past six games (D3 L3), their longest winless streak since April-June 1993. It is also their longest winless streak ever entering a big competition.

    On November 21, England will begin their quest for World Cup success against Iran. However, attention is about to shift back to club affairs as Harry Maguire returns to Manchester ahead of Manchester United's derby with City on Sunday.
