Erik ten Hag says he will "have to coach" Harry Maguire to get Man Utd ace back to his best

Erik Ten Hag has backed under-fire Manchester United skipper Harry Maguire and told the beleaguered defender he has his full support.

Maguire, who has lost his United place, suffered further misery on Monday in England's 3-3 draw with Germany, giving away a penalty before suffering a hamstring injury. That injury has ruled Maguire out of Sunday's Manchester derby, but Ten Hag said he still has faith in Maguire, despite having dropped the 29-year-old centre-back.

“First of all, of course I have to coach him and back him, but I back him because I believe in him,” said Ten Hag.
