Man Utd captain Maguire praises 'amazing' Garnacho after victory over West Ham

Manchester United captain Harry Maguire admits they weren't at their best for Wednesday's FA Cup defeat of West Ham.

United eventually won 3-1 on the night at Old Trafford.

Maguire said, "We made it hard work for ourselves. We was poor in the first half, we have got to start better than that.

"We conceded a soft goal but it is an amazing reaction and we kept fighting and it really felt like it was coming.

"Garnacho is very good, he is a young boy with amazing talent he has got the world at his feet if he works and trains hard like he is at the moment.

"The best teams never stop believing. I am not saying we are one of the best teams yet, we have a lot to do but we are getting there, we are taking steps forward we have a philosophy we were really trying to score. It felt like the Stretford End was sucking the goal in at the end there."
