Manchester United captain Harry Maguire is certain that things are back on track.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side suffered a disappointing 6-1 defeat at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur.

Manchester United have responded with three wins and a draw since then with the latest victory being the towering 5-0 win against last year’s semi-finalists RB Leipzig in the Champions League.

“After Tottenham, we were all devastated,” captain Harry Maguire told MUTV.

“We were three games into the season but it felt like we were in a big crisis.

“It was quite a strange feeling, but we don’t expect to lose games at Old Trafford – and we definitely don’t expect to lose games like we did.

“The first three games we were conceding far too many chances, so as a defensive unit, having kept the most clean sheets in Europe last year, we knew we had to improve, we had to be more solid.

“We’ve worked hard on the training ground and I think since the international break we have gone back to not conceding chances like we wasn’t last year – we were a solid unit and we played from a solid base.

“It has been really important – as a defender especially – to make sure that we give the front lads every opportunity to go and win the game.

“They score one, two, three goals, it should end up in a win and we’re doing that at the moment.

“It’s a start. It’s still early on this season. It is going to be a long journey but we’ve got to improve. We know that and we are doing so at the minute, but a long way to go.”
