Ralf Rangnick has explained why he dropped Harry Maguire from the Manchester United starting XI for the trip to Arsenal in Saturday's early Premier League kick-off.
Maguire has been a mainstay at centre-back this season, missing just five of United's 33 top-flight games. However, Rangnick chose to deploy Victor Lindelof and Raphael Varane at the heart of defence for the clash with the Gunners, which could prove vital in the race for a top-four finish.
His decision came after Maguire was subject to an appalling bomb threat which led to police and sniffer dogs extensively searching his home in midweek. The England international has come under scrutiny for his performances throughout a troubled campaign, most recently facing criticism for his display in Tuesday's calamitous 4-0 defeat at Liverpool.
