Maguire heads Man Utd to victory against Liverpool

It has taken 11 months and 35 games.

It has come after Ruben Amorim described his team as 'maybe' the worst in Manchester United history.

It has come after he expressed public doubts over his own position and, in the past fortnight, was given public reassurance from minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe amid growing speculation the next sequence of poor results would mark the end of his tenure.

Finally, at Anfield, home of Manchester United's - historically and statistically - biggest rivals, Amorim's team delivered a statement win.
