Harry Maguire should be proud of himself for forcing his way back into the reckoning at Manchester United. That's according to Erik ten Hag after Maguire was nominated for the Premier League Player of the Month award for November.
Ten Hag is, incidentally, also in contention for the manager's accolade. Putting early-season woes behind them - at least domestically - United have now won five of their last six games with three straight clean sheets to boot and Maguire has been a constant feature in that run.
Made available for transfer this summer, the 30-year-old rejected a move to West Ham after United had accepted an offer worth £30million.

He has started the last six Premier League matches. The only time United have dropped points during that run was in their 3-0 defeat to Manchester City in the season's first Manchester derby.
