Maguire said that Manchester United are better now defensively and offensively, adding that with Amorim they always ended up in defeat.

The England defender spoke after helping the Red Devils beat Brentford 2-1 at Old Trafford on Monday night a result that further brightens their chances of playing in the Champions League next season.

Before beating Brentford, Michael Carrick’s side had defeated Chelsea 1-0 in their last game.

Casemiro gave them through a towering header and Benjamin Sesko doubled their advantage before the break against Brentford.

Mathias Jensen fired one back late in the game as Brentford fought for equaliser.

United remain in third place with 51 points, three more than Liverpool who they play this weekend.

“When Ruben Amorim was here, the games were 50/50… but we always ended up on the back of a defeat,” Maguire said as quoted by Fabrizio Romano on X.

He added, “Now it seems like it’s the other way around, where we’re a lot better in both boxes. We defend our box a lot better, and we’re managing to be clinical in the other box”.
