Ahead of their EPL 2021-22 game against Aston Villa, Manchester United said that presently he sees no reason why Harry Maguire cannot continue being the captain. “As long as Harry is playing he will be the captain. And if he’s not playing then someone else will have to be the captain. This can change from game to game just depending on who is playing.” The team has many players including David de Gea and Edinson Cavani who could take up the role. According to the German manager, there are many role models in the team who are not only doing good in the training but also have proven themselves during the games.

The German assured that he is in touch with the players on regular basis and even evaluates their performances. “We have so many top, talented players and it brings me back to what Cristiano said, we have to work and develop as a team together and if it’s necessary to speak in a very direct manner to the boys it helps a lot, even in the locker room,” he said. Talking about Ronaldo, he might not feature in the match against Aston Villa due to a hip injury.
