Solskjaer Speaks On Man United 9-0 Win Against Southampton

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has said his side played very well in the 9-0 thrashing of Southampton on Tuesday.

The Premier League game at Old Trafford saw goals from Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Marcus Rashford, Jan Bednarek (OG), Edinson Cavani, Anthony Martial (2), Scott McTominay, Bruno Fernandes and Daniel James.

Speaking after the game, Solskjaer told MUTV: “We moved the ball really well, quickly. We used the width, we had movements in behind, we had strikers who wanted to get on the end of it scoring goals – even had full-backs wanting to be on the end of it.

“It was one of those performances you once in a while get, and you enjoy. I am sure everyone enjoyed being out there in a Man United shirt. We’ve been waiting for them to show their magic and tonight was the night that they could go and enjoy.

“We haven’t had too many of them where you can sit down in the second half and enjoy the football. They enjoyed it and [there were] some good performances.”

Providing an update on Cavani’s injury, Solskjaer added, “Edinson got a bad tackle on his ankle, so he had to come off. He probably would have loved to be out there scoring goals.”
