Ole Gunnar Solskjaer called Sunday’s 0: 5 league defeat with Liverpool the darkest day of his coaching career at Manchester United. The “Red Devils” lost on their field with the biggest rival the biggest difference in history and fell to seventh place in the Premier League table. But Solskjaer does not want to resign.
“It’s hard to say. Maybe it’s just that it’s been my darkest day since I’ve been leading this team. We haven’t been good enough individually and we can’t offer a team like Liverpool a similar chance. It wasn’t a good performance. On the contrary he was active, creating opportunities and punishing them in cold blood, “said Solskjaer.
The main part of the record defeat of United was played by the Egyptian striker Muhamad Salah, who scored a hat-trick at the Old Trafford stadium. With 106 goals, he became historically the best African scorer in the Premier League. Other goals in the match were added by Naby Keita and Diogo Jota.
The goal of Cristiano Ronald was not recognized in Manchester in the second half and he finished without a disqualified Paul Pogba from the 60th minute.
“Sometimes the result is not what we would like. And it’s just behind us, because no one else is to blame. The fans deserve something better, much better. It’s up to us to give it to them,” he wrote after the match on Instagram. Ronaldo, to whose performance the diary Marc remarked, that he “lost his head”.
Solskjaer, who has been leading Manchester United since March 2019, has also become the target of criticism and has not yet won a trophy with him. “I believe in myself and I believe that with the club we are approaching what we want. I think the shift is also known. It is true that the results have not been good lately and may raise doubts for someone. But I must not relax and continue to believe what we are doing, “the former Norwegian striker declined to comment on questions about a possible end to office.
The “Red Devils” have not won four league games in a row, lost in three of them and lose eight points to the Chelsea leader. “We fell to the bottom and it couldn’t have been worse now. But next week we have a duel at Tottenham, then Atalanta in the Champions League and then Manchester City. We have to look ahead. We need to pick ourselves up and make sure that we are going to practice before the next matches in the right mood, “added Solskjaer.
