Harry Maguire praises two Manchester United teammates after Everton win

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Harry Maguire admits the returns of Anthony Martial and Christian Eriksen have been a 'great boost' for the Manchester United squad ahead of a crucial last two months of the season.

The pair both came off the bench in Saturday's 2-0 win over Everton, with Martial stroking home the second after Marcus Rashford pounced on a Seamus Coleman mistake.

The french international has come on in United's last three games following a long and frustrating spell of fitness issues. Eriksen had been unavailable since picking up an ankle injury in the FA Cup clash against Reading in January, coming on during the 77th minute to a warm Old Trafford reception. RATINGS: Fernandes and Sabitzer good in Everton win "It's huge [to have Eriksen and Martial back]," Maguire told Match of the Day. "I've spoken about the squad already.

We need high competition for places. It's great to have Anthony back and Christian came on and really helped see the game out for us.
