Maguire praises young Man Utd fullback duo

Manchester United captain Harry Maguire feels the back four is now getting stronger.

Maguire has praised young fullbacks Brandon Williams and Aaron Wan-Bissaka ahead of Sunday's trip to Liverpool.

He said, "We've been settled for a couple of games now and have kept a few clean sheets. Brandon has come in and done really well and Aaron has been there all season and been solid.

"Me and Vic (Lindelof) are forming a partnership where we're getting comfortable alongside each other and we're starting to learn each other's games. I think as a defensive unit we've been solid for the majority of the year. We've conceded a lot of goals from set plays, so we need to tighten up on that, but we haven't really conceded many chances in games and it's something we still need to improve on and I'm sure we'll get there."
