Manchester United fell 6-1 to Tottenham at home at Old Trafford in the Premier League on Sunday. Then coach Ole Gunnar Solskjær was more or less speechless afterwards.
– It is the worst day of my career as a Manchester United manager and the worst day for all United players. But it is not the worst day in Manchester United history as we have recovered before, he tells the BBC and continues:
– It is difficult to explain. We lost 6-1 at home to a very good team, but we also contributed a lot to our own case.
Solskjær believes, among other things, that Anthony Martial’s red card in the 28th minute contributed to the loss. Martial then beat Erik Lamela, who had previously beaten the Frenchman but had yet to continue playing in the match. On the other hand, Solskjær believes that United still made mistakes that would likely have resulted in defeat, even with eleven players on the pitch.
– Anthony knows that he should not have reacted like that, but the good thing is that he did not go to bed, although he (Lamela) could have been expelled if he (Martial) had done it, says the Norwegian and continues:
– After 2-1 we were still in the game and after the red card we went wrong. You don’t win matches by making individual mistakes and acting like that.
Solskjær now wants the team to bounce back against Newcastle on October 17 in the Premier League. First, wait for a break from the national team.
– We cannot accept such efforts. I lead the team and I am responsible for this.
Manchester United are now 16th in the Premier League with three points after three games played in the English Premier League, the Premier League.
