Gary Neville believes that Bruno Fernandes and Harry Maguire are two Man Utd players who are currently “irreplaceable”.
The Red Devils are currently in good shape under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after putting his exit from the Champions League behind him.
Man Utd have had impressive performances in their last three games against Sheffield United and Leeds United in the Premier League and against Everton in the Carabao Cup.

Those three victories have taken them to third place in the Premier League table and to the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup.
And Neville has been particularly impressed with Fernandes and Maguire, who are “irreplaceable” in his eyes.
Neville told the Gary Neville Sky Sports Podcast: “They are the two players that I think are irreplaceable. Fernandes is irreplaceable, they are far away without him. It is a vital piece of the puzzle.
“Maguire, I think, you would know if he was missing. My instinct is that they would miss him greatly.
“I know some people say he’s not the best defender in the league, that he hasn’t done brilliantly since coming in for £ 80 million, but he has a great presence at the heart of the defense.
“He’s good on the ball, he’s composed and he’s good in the air. He doesn’t make many mistakes, sometimes they catch him, but he’s a good center-back, a very good center-back and a great presence in that team.
“Him and Fernandes, I’m not sure they can [rest them] right now because, sadly, Ole doesn’t have the luxury of losing a game. “
