It was a night of remembrance at Old Trafford on Tuesday night but also an evening of redemption. Or at least something towards that.<\/p>\n

Manchester United paid homage to the great Sir Bobby Charlton in a fitting way before Harry Maguire and Andre Onana went some way to restoring their reputations as United beat FC Copenhagen to kick start their Champions League campaign. <\/p>\n

Maybe Onana even took the shine off Maguire\u2019s match-winning header with his match-winning penalty save. But while the keeper has been under the cosh with big errors after a big-money arrival in the summer, it\u2019s Maguire\u2019s reemergence which is more impressive considering he was heading for the exit door just a few months ago.<\/p>\n

When Erik ten Hag gave the green light for United to sell the England defender after he had taken the captaincy from him, it looked like curtains for Maguire at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

Yet here he was on Tuesday night powering in a header that meant United\u2019s Champions League dream goes on.<\/p>\n

The fact it has followed two impressive Premier League performances against Brentford and Sheffield United either side of the international break has seen talk that Maguire may be on the road back to becoming a regular at United. <\/p>\n

Then there\u2019s the stat which has been bandied about for the last week, which now reads United have won 16 of the last 17 games which Maguire has started in the last 12 months. It is an impressive win rate of 97%.<\/p>\n

Man Utd fans, should Harry Maguire be starting? Give us your thoughts in the comments section below.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, without the former captain on the team sheet, it is 22 of 42 games won – a win rate of just 54%. There\u2019s no doubt Maguire has improved this season and maybe losing the weight of the captaincy has helped. But there may be too much stock put in that stat when you dig a little deeper into it.<\/p>\n

The list of clubs United beat with Maguire starting since last October reads: FC Copenhagen, Sheffield United, Brentford, Crystal Palace, Real Betis, Fulham (twice), Nottingham Forest, Everton, Leeds, Bournemouth, West Ham (twice), Reading, Charlton and Aston Villa. <\/p>\n

Now the Palace win was this season in the EFL Cup, when Roy Hodgson\u2019s men didn\u2019t offer much threat, before they beat United at Old Trafford in the Premier League.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Betis victory was a Europa League second-leg tie last term with Ten Hag\u2019s side leading 4-1, and one of the Fulham victories was a final-day dead rubber.<\/p>\n

Others came in cup competitions and there are relegated sides included, too. The one game he did start when United lost was a key clash versus Sevilla in the Europa League back in April. United were leading 2-0 in the first leg when Maguire replaced Raphael Varane at half-time and scored an own goal.<\/p>\n

They drew that night before he started the second leg and the Red Devils lost 3-0, meaning when Maguire was on the pitch they conceded five against the Spaniards.<\/p>\n

His other two starts in the Premier League last season were a home defeat by Brighton and a four-goal thrashing at Brentford, but they\u2019re not included in the favourable run. That\u2019s no criticism of Maguire, it\u2019s just painting the picture a bit more vividly than just a basic stat.<\/p>\n

The England defender\u2019s performances in the last three games should give him hope and, as the chants from the Stretford End showed, he\u2019s winning back the fans at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

But now the real test. The arrival of Manchester City on Sunday. At the moment, even the return to fitness of Luke Shaw could force Maguire back to the bench.<\/p>\n

But if Maguire can shackle Erling Haaland and give United an unlikely victory against the Treble winners, then we can really start talking about redemption.<\/p>\n
