Man United manager Erik ten Hag's decision to strip Harry Maguire of the club captaincy last summer has paid dividends.
Few would have anticipated Harry Maguire being in the conversation for Manchester United's Player of the Season award at the start of the campaign.
Maguire ended last season facing an uncertain future at Old Trafford, having fallen well down the centre-back pecking order. He is in contention to end this season at the top of it. Maguire has been a pillar of trust for Erik ten Hag this season, rarely letting him down. He has also remained highly professional, refusing to kick up a fuss at the start of the season when minutes were limited.
Ten Hag, speaking last July, said: "It's less responsibility in that perspective, we need more than 11 players, we need that competition so he can fight himself in the team, he has potential, it's up to him to get his position. He was arguably United's best player as they capitulated at Wembley on Sunday and was solid once again against his former employer on Wednesday night. Being free of the captaincy, although it must have been a difficult decision to accept, has, in many ways, given him a new lease of life, allowing him to concentrate that little bit more on his main on-field tasks without carrying an extra weight of expectation.
