Published on September 2, 2019, Manchester United's recent string of poor results has left the team under pressure to return to winning ways.

The Red Devils currently sit eighth on the Premier League log with five points, a far cry from their usual high standards.

Harry Maguire, the team's new signing, has identified sloppiness as the main reason behind their poor form, urging his teammates to 'show more arrogance and be confident on the ball.'

Maguire's comments come after the team's 1-1 draw with Southampton at the weekend, a result that has seen United drop points in three of their last four matches.

With only one victory in the new season, against Chelsea, the team is under immense pressure to bounce back to winning ways.

Maguire's words of wisdom are a call to action for the team to regain their confidence and control games, as he said, 'We're Man United - we want to control games. There were spells where we didn’t control the game, and we got punished.'
