Man Utd defender Maguire: Hojlund absence has hurt us

Manchester United defender Harry Maguire admits they missed Rasmus Hojlund for defeat to Fulham.

The Denmark striker was forced out due to injury.

Maguire said: "We got hit by the injury to Rasmus, who has been big focal point for us but it is up to us to find the solutions and the areas we need to improve on.

"He has been our focal point, we can play into him, he holds it up, he starts the press really well, not only that but Marcus (Rashford) has been playing really well on the left.

"It's the story of our season, we've been injury hit - as other teams have - and we need to find a solution quick."
