Garth Crooks names two Manchester United players in the team of the week

Harry Maguire and Anthony Martial have been singled out for their Manchester United performances over the festive period, by pundit Garth Crooks. He named both players in his BBC team of the week, which is as below: On Maguire, Crooks said: “This was a return to something like the form we’ve come to expect from Harry Maguire. The Manchester United defender, who was captain for the fixture against Newcastle, looked comfortable once his side took control of the game. The armband is a further indication of how quickly Maguire has found his feet at Old Trafford and a hint of what Solskjaer actually thinks of him. Against Burnley the England international was at the heart of an excellent clean sheet, limiting the hosts to only a handful of chances.” While on Martial he added: “I think I saw Anthony Martial smile over the Christmas period. This lad only seems happy when he’s scoring goals. Against Newcastle, he bagged two and his second was gorgeous. “I was beginning to have my doubts that Martial was the right man to lead the line for Manchester United. However, I must admit the France international has handled both United’s festive fixtures with a certain authority. “Watching the way he collected the ball from Andreas Pereira and slotted the pass into the Burnley net with such confidence, I may have to review my position.”  Source- BBC
