HARRY MAGUIRE says angry football fans overstepped the mark by sending him a bomb threat.
The Manchester United star and his family were forced to flee their home after the email threat in April. Cheshire police searched the premises but no device was found.
Maguire said: “Obviously I’m going to be criticised. Manchester United paid a large sum of money for me, it is one of the most loved clubs in the world and one of the most hated.
“We know we are under the most scrutiny. I totally accept criticism when we concede goals or make mistakes. I’m big enough to accept people getting on my back and saying I can improve.
“But there is a line where we are human beings. I do have a family.
“It doesn’t affect me too much but when it comes to bomb threats, it is more about family — my fiancee, Fern.
“I’m just happy my kids are at an age where they don’t read things and see things on the news.”
Maguire has linked up with the England squad for four Uefa Nations League fixtures, the first in Hungary on Saturday.
The defender, 29, has had a nightmare season with United, who finished sixth in the Prem.
He said: “Yes, it’s been a tough season, there’s no hiding away from that.
