LONDON – Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes Manchester United have the squad to compete this season despite the lack of new players on the transfer market.
Solskjaer had underlined the need for new signings following United’s 2-1 loss to Sevilla in the Europa League semi-finals last season, but Dutch midfielder Donny van de Beek remains the club’s only summer signing. Premier League.
“We have players we believe in,” Solskjaer told reporters ahead of Sunday’s Premier League clash against Tottenham Hotspur. “The window is still open and the club knows my point of view and we are here to strengthen ourselves in the long term.
“When I talk about the depth of the team, of course, last season’s performances did not allow me to give them more options … I think now it’s a different scenario.
“I’ve seen a lot of the other players who didn’t play very well the other season, play really well. We’ve lost a lot of money, as other clubs have. And when I talk about the depth of the squad, we have a great team. “.
Solskjaer and Spurs coach José Mourinho exchanged blows in the run-up to Sunday’s game, but the Norwegian insisted he would not be lured into more mind games.
“José has given us some fantastic moments over the years in football, at press conferences and on the pitch,” added Solskjaer.
“We are in strange times. Sometimes you have to have a little fun. José is a very charismatic coach and I have enjoyed talking to him in the media, I enjoyed watching him. I have the utmost respect for him as a coach and everything that football has given him. “.
Solskjaer confirmed that Harry Maguire, who injured his ankle against Brighton & Hove Albion, would be fit for the crash.
