Captain Harry Maguire has admitted that he believes Manchester United are heading back towards where they want to be in the Premier League following a recent run of good results.
United, who head into this afternoon's clash with West Ham United at Old Trafford knowing that win will lift them to within a point of the top-four, have enjoyed a solid run during October, aside from their 6-3 derby day defeat to Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium at the start of the month. Erik ten Hag's side have won five out of their eight matches this month, including an impressive 2-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur.
After a stuttering start to the campaign, which, of course, featured the humiliating 4-0 defeat at Brentford in August, United have transformed their fortunes, so much so that they look like a side capable of securing a top-four finish. And for Maguire, who made his long-awaited return from injury for the second half of Thursday night's Europa League win over Sheriff Tiraspol, the Reds are moving in the right direction.
