Manchester United captain Harry Maguire does not believe having central midfielders in defence was a loss for Liverpool.

The Reds had Jordan Henderson and Fabinho as their centre-halves at Anfield against United.

But both equipped themselves excellently and the game petered out as a 0-0 draw.

The United skipper told Sky Sports: "There is a lot of talk of Liverpool being without their first-choice centre-halves but they've had a great defensive record since these injuries.

"It just shows that they have lots of options there. Jordan's gone in there and I've played with him numerous times and he can play in there.

"We knew they were short on centre-halves but like I said they've got lots of options."
