\u201cI\u2019ve loved nothing more than putting that shirt on and representing my country over the years.<\/p>\n
\u201cI wish the players, all the best this summer.\u201d<\/p>\n
Maguire\u2019s mother Zoe also expressed her disappointment on social media, saying she was \u201cdisgusted\u201d by the decision.<\/p>\n
Maguire has played a major role for United since Michael Carrick took charge at Old Trafford in January, helping the team finish third in the Premier League.<\/p>\n
According to reports from UK media, Manchester City\u2019s Phil Foden, Nottingham Forest\u2019s Morgan Gibbs-White, Manchester United\u2019s Luke Shaw, Chelsea playmaker Cole Palmer, Levi Colwill, Fikayo Tomori and Dominic Calvert-Lewin are also set to miss out.<\/p>\n
Ivan Toney is poised to earn a shock recall, while Ollie Watkins, Kobbie Mainoo and Tino Livramento have also reportedly been included.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt would mean a lot,\u201d Toney told Sky Sports in February, speaking about the prospect of a World Cup call-up.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have never played at a World Cup. It would be a dream; everyone dreams of that.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf we were to win it, that would be so big for the country. You have visions of what could happen. If it comes true, it would be a blessing.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"England defender Harry Maguire said he was \u201cshocked and gutted\u201d to have been left out of Thomas Tuchel\u2019s…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":686008,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563],"tags":[64,63,596,85],"class_list":["post-686007","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-football","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/686007","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=686007"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/686007\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/686008"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=686007"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=686007"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=686007"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
