While focus will quickly shift to that 17:30 assignment next weekend, Maguire is under no illusions about how big a win this Anfield victory is for United.
“It means everything,” he admitted. “It’s the old cliche, ‘it’s only three points’, but it’s definitely not.
“It means a lot more than that to the boys, to the club, to the fans.
“It is only three points on the table, but to come here and do it over Liverpool, and like I said, they have been a top team over the years, and they’ve been a lot better than us in recent years, so it’s nice to get one over them.”
