The centre-back has had a rollercoaster Old Trafford career and thinks that his commitment has enabled him to recover from the disappointment of losing the captaincy under former manager Erik ten Hag.

Speaking to CNN, Maguire said: "Just hard work. It comes down to every day coming into training and doing everything you can to improve. And if you give everything, I always say that it doesn't matter what you go through, if you're giving absolutely everything on the pitch and off the pitch, you can't do anything else.

"It's just about working hard and giving everything and also having great belief in myself that I can do that and obviously turn around that difficult season which I had."

United are set to finish in the bottom half of the Premier League and Maguire admits that the campaign has been "nowhere near good enough".

The England defender said of the club's season: "It's been really disappointing. We can't hide away from that. We've been far too inconsistent, and we've let the season fall away from us.

"It's left us in a position where obviously we can't go anywhere in the Premier League now and we're just playing more for pride and league position rather than European places which we know as players, that's just nowhere near good enough for Manchester United."

Maguire says that the United players are hurting at the awful season but is confident that things will be better next term.

He said: "It gives us that hunger and that fight to make sure next season we come back, and we start a lot better, and we show a lot more, which I'm sure we will do.

"I think there's been so many games where we've been on the wrong end of fifty-fifty games where we probably look like the ones that we're going to win and we're ending up losing it.

"I'm sure next year we're going to improve. We're going to find the difference in those games, and we're going to make sure we perform a lot better and to a more consistent basis."
