Man Utd defender Maguire confident of warm welcome back at Sheffield Utd

Manchester United defender Harry Maguire is looking forward to going back to Sheffield United this weekend.

The 26-year-old is hoping for a good reception from the passionate Sheffield United supporters who instantly took to his enthusiasm and attitude, from the moment he made his Blades debut against Cardiff City.

“The crowd got right on my side," he said, of his first senior appearance back in April 2011. “They have been great with me ever since, the Sheffield United fans, so I've got a lot to thank them for.

“I'll be back at Bramall Lane and I'm sure I'll get a better reception than I did from the Leicester fans when they came to Old Trafford!

Sheffield United have started great in the Premier League but, when we play them, it's going to be business for me. I'll be trying to get the three points off them but then hope they win every other game, apart from the ones against us."
