If there is a key trait for a Manchester United captain, it is that they step up in their side's time of need. It is not a characteristic that has been closely associated with Harry Maguire during his time at the club, but it was certainly present last weekend.
The 29-year-old struggled at first upon his return to the United starting line-up, and West Ham exploited the space between him and Lisandro Martinez early on.
As the game went on, Maguire was clearly more comfortable in his role, improving with every minute he played as he looked to regain confidence after a calamitous calendar year.
