Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hailed the performance of Harry Maguire after their 0-0 draw against Manchester City.

Solskjaer was delighted with his captain on the day.

He said, “I've just said David (De Gea) made a great save as well. Maybe that will make a headline but probably not, because then he's just doing his job.

"Harry made a couple of blocks and I thought Harry stood out as well. The whole team, they deserve praise. I know how mentally tough it has been for them, and for myself for that matter, after Tuesday night's disappointment. They picked themselves up and got a result, a clean sheet and it's something to move forward with.

“The glass is always half-full with me. That's just the way you have to look at it. In my time against Man City, that's the best performance we've had. Not the best result but it's the best performance. I think so, yeah."
