Both Maguire and Lindelof are likely to start in Manchester United's next game against Arsenal and duo would like to prove a point against Gunners attack which boasts likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Nicolas Pepe. While Man United vs Arsenal clashes se days aren't as flashy and star-studded as Ferdinand's playing days, clash promises to be a spectacle as both Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Mikel Arteta will hope to prove ir big-game pedigree. Both teams have gotten off to indifferent starts this season, and three points could go a long way in appeasing ir supporters.
