Schmeichel on Maguire: I want him to play every game and captain the team

Manchester United legend Schmeichel was full of joy after witnessing his old club beat Liverpool at Anfield in the Premier League and he praised Maguire's performance in an interview with ViaPlay after the match.

Schmeichel said, "I am very happy for Maguire. He has been a fringe player before but he started this game and for me it was the most important game."

"For me he is the only real United player in the team. The guy defends like a real defender."

"He has been leading, communicating with all the players. Stepping up when needed and this goal today makes me incredibly happy for him and the team. I could kiss Amorim."

"I can't give him enough credit, I want Maguire to play every game, I want him to captain the team. He has all the qualities of a good United leader."
