Speaking on BT Sport after the 2–0 win away at Villarreal, Harry Maguire said: "It's massive for our season. The last couple of months have been nowhere near good enough and we needed to get a result for our season and our fans.
"We need to make sure that's just the start and we push on. It was tough and edgy in the first half. It was important to stay in the game and I thought the lads who came off the bench really helped us push on.
"The emphasis was getting a result. Coming away from home in Europe you have to be solid. We got what we deserved in the end because of the chances we created. We want to be on the front foot and aggressive.
"In the first half maybe we played with too much fear. But we spoke about that and the first goal came from pressure. We need to get back to being solid because if we do that we have every chance to win games."
Manchester United, who have now secured their place in the Champions League Round of 16, face Chelsea in the Premier League on Sunday next.
