Solskjaer "very confident" he can get the best out of Man Utd squad

mirror.co.uk, 3 October 2021, 21:30

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is adamant he can turn Manchester United's fortunes around - despite another huge setback at Old Trafford.

United stumbled to a 1-1 draw with Everton on Saturday, which means Solskjaer's side have won just once in their last four games - all of them at home.

Solskjaer faces a critical run of games after the international break that will go a long way to determining whether he remains in charge of United.

United face Leicester, Liverpool, Tottenham and Manchester City, as well as a double-header against Atalanta in the Champions League.

Solskjaer is under growing pressure, with many United fans feeling their former striker has now taken the team as far as he can.

But Solskjaer, 48, insisted he and his coaching staff will get the best out of the formidable squad at their disposal and get United back on track.

Asked if he should be getting more out of his squad, Solskjaer said: "It's the same question that was asked after Wednesday night.

"I'm very confident that we will get the best out of this squad.

"A lot has happened this month and we've had Raphael [Varane] and Jadon [Sancho] with us since August, and Cristiano [Ronaldo] since September.

"We've got loads to work on and we need to improve, we know that and I know that, but I do believe in this group of players and the coaching staff that I've got. So, the short answer is yes.

"I believe in these players, I believe in the coaching staff and I believe we have something going. The proof is in the pudding, we need results and you have to turn up.

"You can't say 'we did well against City and Tottenham last year', we have to do it during the 90 minutes, whoever plays.

"That's the challenge, because every game in the Champions League and Premier League is a big game against a good team and every game as Manchester United is a potential banana skin, as we're expected to win every one."
