“He [the manager] pulled me to one side and told me that if Ashley leaves, I’d be appointed as the next captain. He wished me well and told me to keep doing what I’m doing. I was really proud, it’s such an honor to play for this club, let alone captain it.

“It’s fairly new because I’ve never actually been appointed club captain, but I’ve had some great captains in my time. Michael Dawson at Hull, Wes Morgan at Leicester and then Youngy here. I’ve learnt from some great people who do stuff well off the pitch. “

When quizzed on what makes a great captain, Maguire deduced: “Leading by example and being responsible for your team’s actions on and off the pitch. I’ve had some great captains to look to and learn from and hopefully I can take that and bring it to the club here.

Then you have responsibilities off the pitch and in the dressing room. As I’ve got older with more experience, I’ve developed more speaking in my game whereas when I was a young boy, I was quite quiet.

“I always looked up to the experienced boys there and seeing how they handled themselves and it’s something I’ve improved as I’ve got older.”

    ) “We go into the game on Sunday looking for three points. We’re not going there to play for a draw and wherever we go, we’re expected to win games because we’re Manchester United. We have confidence in our ability and our team.

    “This year we’ve beaten Manchester City at the Etihad, got a point against Liverpool at Old Trafford where we maybe should’ve held on in the dying stages and got all three, but we take confidence from that going into Sunday.
