As Manchester United gears up to face Aston Villa, Harry Maguire reflects on his former teammate Victor Lindelof, emphasizing the Swede's underrated contributions.
Manchester United is set to clash with Aston Villa this weekend, aiming to bounce back after a tough loss to Newcastle in their last Premier League outing. Ahead of the match, Harry Maguire took a moment to discuss his former teammate Victor Lindelof, who now dons the Villa colors.
Maguire believes Lindelof never received the recognition he deserved during their time together at United. "Victor was an excellent player," he stated. "He played so many games and always performed under different managers. We had an amazing relationship on the pitch."
The duo was pivotal in United's defense, especially in their early years together. Maguire recalled, "In our first year, we kept the most clean sheets in Europe, and maybe second or third in the second season. We defended properly and well."
Maguire's connection with Lindelof stands out. "I’ve probably played the most games with Victor. Our relationship on the pitch was as strong as I’ve had with anybody," he added, highlighting the chemistry that helped solidify United's backline.
As the Red Devils prepare for a crucial match against Villa, Maguire's words serve as a reminder of the impact Lindelof had during his time at Old Trafford. The stakes are high, and both players will be looking to prove their worth on the pitch.
