R. Rangnickas: "Maguire is our captain and I don't see any reason why it should be otherwise" © JumpStory

"Manchester United" in the last 10 matches, compared to a relatively easy schedule, managed to win only 4 victories and one of the reasons for this difficult series is the uncertain defense. Criticisms have been directed towards the team captain Harry Maguire for some time. The team's coach Ralf Rangnick also spoke about the central defender at the latest press conference. "I think when he returned from injury, he played very well and had a very good performance against 'West Ham'. In the last two matches he had weaker moments, both against 'Southampton' and 'Burnley' when we conceded a goal. Maguire is the team captain and I don't see a reason why that should change. He is a player who needs to improve and be better, like all players. Right now, the way we play, it is a completely new system for him, also because he is used to playing in a three-man defense line in the national team, and here - in a four-man defense line," said the "Man Utd" head coach about H. Maguire.
