Matokea ya hivi punde ya mechi yao ya ligi kuu ya Uingereza inaamanisha vijana wa Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hawananafasi ya kufikia Chelsea au Tottenham na wana nafasi finyu ya kuiondoa Arsenal katika nafasi ya tano.

Lakini baada ya mchezo huo alipata nafasi kocha wa Manchester United Mnorway Ole Gunnar na kufunguka yafuatayo:-

“We are where we are for a reason. Over a long season, we haven’t been good enough to challenge for the Champions League places and today, we’ve ended up with the last hope being took away so it’s not something that comes like a surprise. Today, we hoped to win the game and show a better performance.”

“I can’t talk about individuals now but there’s a chance you’ve seen the last of players anyway,” Solskjaer said. “There’s always a chance it’s a last time but I wouldn’t say that about any individual now, I don’t think that’s fair.

“We’ve been chasing the pack now, we’ve been close and we’re not that far away.

But we shouldn’t be talking about being far away from the top four at Man United. It’s a fresh start next season, we need to really have a go because we want to get back into the top four.

“We’re many levels away at the moment [from Liverpool and Man City], but that’s the size of the challenge and it’s great challenge for us. I’m sure we’re going to make it.

“Every performance makes an impact on who you want to keep and who you want to let go. That’s easy enough to answer. Let’s see how bad his [Sanchez’s] injury is for now. Every player is always playing for their place in the team.”

“Tupo sehemu ambayo inastahili kuwa .Katika kipindi cha muda mrefu, hatujawahi kuwa na changamoto kubwa katika Ligi ya Mabingwa na leo, tumeishi na matumaini ya mwisho yanayoondolewa hivyo sio kitu kinachoja kama mshangao. Leo, tulitarajia kushinda mchezo na kuonyesha utendaji bora.” Manchester United haijawa vizuri kuwa na ushindani katika ligi ya mabingwa barani Ulaya”

“Siwezi kuzungumza juu ya watu sasa lakini kuna fursa umeona mwisho wa wachezaji hata hivyo,” Solskjaer alisema. “Kuna daima nafasi ni mara ya mwisho lakini siwezi kusema hivyo kuhusu mtu yeyote sasa, sidhani hiyo ni ya haki.

“Tumekuwa tukifukuza pakiti sasa, tumekuwa karibu na hatuko mbali sana.”

“Lakini hatupaswi kuzungumza juu ya nafasi ya nne kwa Man United. Ni msimu mpya wa msimu ujao, tunahitaji kwenda kupambana kweli kwa sababu tunataka kurudi kwenye nafasi yetu ya nne juu.

“Sisi tuko katika ngazi nyingine baada ya kutoka Liverpool na Man City], lakini hiyo ni ukubwa wa changamoto na ni changamoto kubwa kwetu. Nina hakika tutaifanya.
