Default Re: Bruno Fernandes

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer claims Bruno Fernandes is 'NOT tired' and vows to keep playing Manchester United's star man despite lacklustre display at Liverpool as Red Devils aim to continue Premier League title push

* Bruno Fernandes struggled in Manchester United's draw at Liverpool on Sunday
* The midfielder missed a couple of good chances before being subbed late on
* But Ole Gunnar Solskjaer backed the midfielder to quickly return to form
* Manchester United are back in action on Wednesday when they visit Fulham


Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says Bruno Fernandes isn’t tired and doesn’t want a rest despite a below-par performance in Manchester United’s goalless draw at Anfield on Sunday.

Fernandes has been a mainstay of Solskjaer’s side, playing all 32 Premier League games since making his debut for United nearly a year ago including 28 starts.

The Portuguese star has become a talisman at Old Trafford and picked up his fourth Premier League player of the month award last week.

However, Fernandes’s passing game was off against Liverpool at the weekend even though he went close to a goal with a free kick and a shot from Luke Shaw’s cross.

The 26-year-old was unhappy to be substituted towards the end and Solskjaer insists the player wouldn’t want to be left out of Wednesday’s trip to Fulham.

‘His form is very good, he was just voted player of the month,’ said the United boss. ‘He’s not tired, no chance.

'He is one of the players that runs and covers the ground in every single game, he’s very good at recovering and recharging his batteries.


Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has no plans to rest star man Bruno Fernandes (above) despite his poor display for Manchester United in Sunday's 0-0 draw at Premier League title rivals Liverpool. Fernandes struggled to influence the game and missed a couple of opportunities to score

‘If he scored his free-kick or if it just had a little air on the ball when Luke put the cross in he'd have been lauded as best player in Premier League again.

‘Since he’s come in, he's been absolutely immense. He’s not tired and if I ask him he'll say there's absolutely no chance that he's tired.’

Fernandes routinely gives the ball away more than his teammates because the nature of his job is to take risks, and Solskjaer doesn’t want him to change even though he couldn’t make a breakthrough at Anfield.

‘He's expected to create goals, score goals and sometimes the margins are against him,’ said Solskjaer. ‘That free kick, I saw that one in! There were a couple of passes that he played through and it was marginal as to whether the player was on or offside.

‘So he’s always on the verge of creating something, even when he loses the ball. That's the position I want him in and that’s what he's been told to do. He has to be the creative one. I want him to play the passes he sees.’

Default Re: Bruno Fernandes

Does Bruno Fernandes go missing against the Big Six? He is Manchester United's leader yet his attacking stats against the best drop off significantly and Roy Keane accused him of 'not turning up for big occasions' - but it might not be all his fault...

* Bruno Fernandes has galvanised Manchester United since joining last January
* He has scored 19 goals and provided 14 assists in 32 Premier League games
* But against the 'Big Six' he has only two goals and two assists in eight matches
* All his key stats go down when he plays against the top flight's biggest teams
* But there's more than meets the eye in Fernandes' diminished returns


When you pinpoint the catalyst of Manchester United's upturn in the past 12 months there can only be one answer: Bruno Fernandes.

The Portuguese playmaker joined in a transfer worth up to £68million from Sporting Lisbon at the end of last January. A year on and neither Fernandes nor United have looked back.

Fernandes has turned United from top-four hopefuls into a side currently just off the top of the Premier League and battling to win their first title since Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement in 2013.


Bruno Fernandes was below par for Manchester United as they drew 0-0 at Liverpool. Fernandes struggled to get to grips with Liverpool in the top-of-the-table clash on Sunday. He was substituted in the final moments of the game - with Mason Greenwood replacing him

In his first 49 games for the club, the 26-year-old has a stunning 27 goals.

Delving into his domestic form, those figures read even better. From just 32 Premier League matches he has 19 goals and 14 assists - meaning he has a goal contribution (33 in total) of slightly more than one every game (1.03).

However, Fernandes wasn't at his scintillating best on Sunday as United drew at bitter rivals Liverpool in a goalless top-of-the-table clash.

He was substituted late on, much to his frustration, after a subdued performance at Anfield. Fernandes spurned a golden chance to win the game late on for the visitors when his close-range effort was saved by Alisson Becker. He also came close to beating the Liverpool goalkeeper in the first half with a free-kick which just went wide.

Speaking post-match as a pundit, United's legendary former captain Roy Keane was critical of their talisman.

'When I look at the couple of chances United have created, [Marcus] Rashford never turned up,' he told Sky Sports.

'Fernandes didn't play that well either, but they still created the two best chances of the game. Huge moments.'

Keane also criticised Fernandes for failing to turn up during United's comprehensive Carabao Cup semi-final defeat by rivals Manchester City earlier this month, during which Fernandes and Co were thoroughly outclassed.

The United legend said: 'It's not easy winning football trophies. Fernandes has had great praise for the last few months and people have been comparing him to [Eric] Cantona etc. Fernandes didn't really do much tonight.

'The top players turn up in the big occasions. And that's what the Cantona's used to do – they get their hands on trophies. That's where this team are a little bit short.'

In the wake of Keane's most recent comments, Keane's former United team-mate Rio Ferdinand was quick to defend Fernandes, hailing him as 'phenomenal'.

He told Stretford Paddock's YouTube channel: 'They looked off (against Liverpool) but we're top of the league so I always look at it like that.

'Yeah, there might be players off form, but if you're still nicking results and you're still winning and you're still in a healthy position, that's not a bad thing.

'If we played this game and had zero shots on target and we looked like we had no threat at all, then I'd be a little bit concerned.

'But I still think there were moments, it was just the final pass or timing of the pass in the final third maybe a couple of times, and then the finish, they were just a little bit off today.

'But, listen, you can't talk about [Bruno]. I wouldn't say Bruno's looked off recently. The geezer's output has been phenomenal.'

Boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was also forced to defend his man, insisting at his press conference that Fernandes isn’t tired and doesn’t want a rest despite his below-par performance at Anfield.

Solskjaer added that Fernandes wouldn’t want to be left out of Wednesday’s trip to Fulham.

'His form is very good, he was just voted player of the month,' said the United boss. 'He’s not tired, no chance.

'He is one of the players that runs and covers the ground in every single game, he’s very good at recovering and recharging his batteries.

'If he scored his free-kick or if it just had a little air on the ball when Luke put the cross in he'd have been lauded as best player in Premier League again.'

It would be foolish to criticise Fernandes as his impact at the club has indeed been phenomenal. However, stats do suggest he has struggled when United come up against their supposed 'Big Six' rivals (Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham).

To be blunt - from a numbers standpoint it doesn't make great reading. Since his Premier League debut last February, Fernandes has played eight times against the 'Big Six', scoring just twice. In comparison against the rest, Fernandes has 17 goals in 24 appearances.

The difference in output is huge with United's No 18 goal-to-game ratio at 0.25 compared to 0.71 - a figure almost three times larger.

The disparity also shows when you take into account his minutes-per-goal ratio. The playmaker has racked up 656 minutes in eight matches against the 'Big Six' - equating to a goal every 328 minutes. Against the rest he has played 2,016 minutes to result in a goal every 119 minutes. The former ratio is almost three times as great.

Delving deeper and both of Fernandes' goals against the 'Big Six' have come from the penalty spot - meaning he is yet to score in open play against any of his toughest Premier League opposition. The first was at Tottenham in a 1-1 draw last June and also against the same opposition in a dreadful 6-1 home thrashing back in October.


He has only scored twice against United's 'Big Six' rivals - both were penalties against Spurs

Shots per game: 3.6

Successful passes per game: 48

Tackles per game: 1.9
The 26-year-old has proven to be a greater attacking threat against the perceived 'lesser' sides, with seven of his 17 goals coming from the penalty spot.

It's not just the goals output that is down, it's assists too. Fernandes has just two to his name against the 'Big Six' and 12 against the rest. It means he averages an assist every 328 minutes, while it only takes him every 168 minutes to replicate that against others.

It would be foolish to say Fernandes goes missing in the big games though. The eye test alone shows he is still pivotal to everything good about Solskjaer's side.

Yes he may average per game less chances (2.3 to 3), shots (3.2 to 3.6), successful passes (34 to 48) and tackles (1.2 to 1.9) but there are mitigating factors for this.

First of all he is playing against better opponents who can shackle his talents. That can be done via denying him space or stopping his team-mates from passing him the ball in areas where he will be a lot more dangerous.


Fernandes only has two assists in the Premier League against 'Big Six' clubs too - including one for Anthony Martial during the Manchester derby last season, which United won 2-0

Secondly, he can't do it all by himself. While his goal output may be disappointing for a player of his calibre against the elite he has still been creating chances for his team-mates, which they have failed to capitalise on - meaning his assist numbers are lower than perhaps his play merits.

And this in turn, comes to another point - the tactics deployed by Solskjaer. United may be top of the league but they are very much a work in progress and everyone knows that.

As a team, the Red Devils are yet to beat a 'Big Six' rival this season - a stat that needs to change if they are to have any chance of winning the Premier League.

Against Spurs they were thumped 6-1, they drew 0-0 with Chelsea, lost 1-0 to Arsenal, drew 0-0 with City before Sunday's goalless affair against Liverpool too. The former four fixtures were all at home, with only the weekend's clash being played away from Old Trafford.

And that 6-1 hammering by Tottenham has altered Solskjaer's tactical approach against this type of opposition. That game saw Solskjaer attacking as he played a 4-2-3-1 formation. In midfield Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba were paired as a two with Mason Greenwood, Fernandes, Rashford and Martial in front of them.


Fred (left) and Scott McTominay (right) are often his preferred midfield pairing in big games

However, despite taking a second-minute lead (through Fernandes' penalty) things quickly imploded as Spurs were 3-1 ahead after 30 minutes and with a man advantage following Martial's red card.

United were carved open at will and Solskjaer has learned from that by going for substance over style ever since. Scott McTominay and Fred have been his preferred central midfield pairing since then because they provide a better defensive screen for his side. However, it means United lose the creativity of Pogba more centrally - although he has featured out wide in these games since.

A more attacking approach would pose greater defensive problems for opposition teams but would leave United more exposed themselves - a la the Tottenham game.

It's a delicate act for Solskjaer but to get the best out of Fernandes he must also considering rotating him more. The £40m elephant in the room in Donny van de Beek has barely got a chance to showcase his talents in the Premier League this term, starting just twice from his 10 games played. He was an unused substitute once again during Sunday's draw at Liverpool too.

Fernandes - and the same could be said of Rashford - has looked a little bit sluggish since the festive period began, as evidenced by one goal and one assist in his last four league matches. It would be wise of Solskjaer to rotate where possible to allow him to regain his legs.


Solskjaer needs to start incorporating Donny van de Beek more into his first-team plans too

Bruno Fernandes 'practiced free-kicks for extra 45 minutes in training' before scoring match-winning set-piece against Liverpool and was annoyed at Ole Gunnar Solskjaer telling him to stop, reveals Manchester United boss

* Bruno Fernandes practiced free-kicks for 45 minutes after training on Saturday
* Fernandes' practice paid off as he scored the winner in FA Cup tie v Liverpool
* Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer praised his side's character


Ole Gunnar Solskjaer revealed that Bruno Fernandes began plotting Liverpool’s downfall after learning he was being left out of Manchester United’s team for Sunday's fourth-round clash.

The decision to start Fernandes on the bench allowed United’s talisman to put in extra free-kick practice in training on Saturday, and it paid off with a 78th-minute winner at Old Trafford.

‘Great goal, good free kick,’ said Solskjaer. ‘Wherever he starts he doesn’t stay out. He's never happy with me when I tell him to go inside after training.

‘But he knew he wasn’t starting so he stayed out practising for 45 minutes yesterday (Saturday) and it worked. I was pretty confident he could score one if he got the chance.’

Fernandes, who got some advice from team-mate Edinson Cavani about where to place the free-kick, says he is living the dream at United as he approaches his first anniversary at Old Trafford.

‘I work a lot on these kinds of goals, free-kicks. I tried, this one and it went well,’ he said. ‘The most important thing was going to the next round and I think it doesn't matter who scores. If I score I'm happy for sure.

‘When I just arrived this is everything, a dream come true. To play for this big club in the Premier League, put them together it's a dream come true and it keeps being a dream come true.’


Solskjaer was delighted with the character his side shown during an enthralling encounter

Victory earned United a fifth-round tie at home to West Ham and also saw Solskjaer’s side beat one of their main rivals for the first time in any competition this season.

Having been criticised for an over-cautious approach in a goalless draw in the league at Anfield a week earlier, the United boss was much happier with the outcome this time.

‘It’s a fantastic to win games over last year’s champions,’ he added. ‘We played on our terms and we found a way the players believe in. We are getting stronger and stronger – the mentality to come back after being 1-0 down, and physically stronger too.

‘Look at the difference to six months back. We’re getting better and winning tight games. The morale and confidence is very good – everyone is elated and on a high.

‘It’s a good feeling to play on our terms. We’ve had some good results, gone with a diamond or 3-5-2 to nullify the opponents.

'Today we had a positive selection, and that’s the statement to ourselves. A confidence boost that we can match the best with our style of football.’

Bruno Fernandes reveals Edinson Cavani told him to hit free-kick on Alisson's side before he took Manchester United striker's advice and smashed in winner against Liverpool

* Bruno Fernandes revealed Edinson Cavani told him where to aim his free-kick
* The Manchester United midfielder provided the winning touch against Liverpool
* He reiterated he's living his 'dream' playing for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side


Bruno Fernandes revealed Manchester United teammate Edinson Cavani told him where to aim his winning free-kick in their FA Cup victory over rivals Liverpool.

The Portuguese midfielder provided the crucial moment at Old Trafford, perfectly placing a set piece out of reach from Reds goalkeeper Alisson, to give United the lead after coming on as a substitute.

Earlier goals from Mason Greenwood and Marcus Rashford were enough for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side to knock out the Premier League champions, who are without a win in their last three matches.


Bruno Fernandes revealed Edinson Cavani told him where to aim his winning free-kick

Fernandes has been the standout player at Old Trafford since his arrival last year but the Red Devils talisman admitted that striker Cavani was the mastermind behind his free kick goal.

'I'm happy cause we win nothing more. Doesn't matter who scores, if I score I'm happy,' Fernandes told BBC after the victory.

'I work a lot on those type of goals, this one was good. Cavani told me to have one on the side of the keeper and it went in well.'

The midfielder has scored eleven goals from 19 matches so far this season across all competitions as Manchester United have fought their way to the top of the Premier League after a shaky start to the campaign.

Fernandes reiterated that he is living his 'dream' playing for United and praised his teammates for the win.

He continued: 'I think we played well. 90 minutes was good from both teams. We pressed them more than we did in the league and that's what the point was to win this game.

'This is everything a dream come true to play for a big club in the Premier League. Everyone knows, I know now fans are happy and will have a good week.'

Manchester United will now play West Ham United in the fifth round of the FA Cup.

MARTIN KEOWN: Manchester United's players are following Bruno Fernandes' lead... he is unlocking the door for success at Old Trafford in a way that Eric Cantona did

* Manchester United beat Liverpool 3-2 in the FA Cup fourth round on Sunday
* Bruno Fernandes scored the winner with a fine free-kick in the 78th minute
* The midfielder has had a huge impact since joining the club 12 months ago


I remember man-marking Eric Cantona on my England debut in 1992 and battling with him in the Premier League. Cantona unlocked the door for Manchester United’s success in his five seasons at the club. He and Bruno Fernandes are clearly different types of player, but Fernandes is having that Cantona effect.

Team-mates are following his lead. Every time Fernandes gets the ball, he tries to make something happen. That’s his mentality.

His winner on Sunday will give United great belief. Beating one of your biggest rivals lets you know you are as good as them, if not better. United must now take that belief and use it in the Premier League title race.


Bruno Fernandes celebrates after scoring the winning goal against Liverpool on Sunday. Fernandes netted the decisive goal with a free-kick from just outside the penalty area

Liverpool are going through a poor patch. Their full backs are still flying forward and in the past that’s worked because they’ve had two sprinters, Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez, ready to put out any fires at the back.

Fabinho or Jordan Henderson in midfield also offered protection. That triangle is a significant part of the way they play. But that’s been severely disrupted.

Now when their high press is beaten, they look exposed. Both goals in the second half were down to inexperience. Rhys Williams, at 19, is going to make mistakes and that’s how Marcus Rashford scored. Fabinho then showed his inexperience by fouling Edinson Cavani for Fernandes’s free-kick.

United capitalised, and this win will give them such confidence.

'No, I'm not tired': Bruno Fernandes laughs off claims he is in danger of burning out after whirlwind year at Manchester United - and insists he 'wants to win every time' in hunt for first trophy in England

* Bruno Fernandes has rubbished any claims he might be tired after a hectic year
* This weekend will be the playmaker's first anniversary with Manchester United
* The 26-year-old has been involved in 45 goals across all competitions since then
* Fernandes insists he is in no danger of burning out and is eager to keep winning


Bruno Fernandes has laughed off suggestions he might be tired after a whirlwind first year at Manchester United.

This weekend will mark the anniversary of Fernandes's £67.8million arrival from Sporting Lisbon.

The 26-year-old Portuguese star has been involved in 45 goals in all competitions since then, more than any other Premier League player, after scoring 28 times and adding 17 assists.

Fernandes has become almost indispensable to manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, starting almost every game.

It has led to concerns that he is danger of burning out on the few occasions he has been below-par, such as United's goalless draw with Liverpool at Anfield.

Fernandes began Sunday's FA Cup fourth-round tie between the two clubs at Old Trafford on the bench to allow Donny van de Beek a rare start, but came on to score the winner from a 78th-minute free-kick.


Bruno Fernandes laughed off claims he might be tired after his first year at Manchester United. Fernandes has become indispensable to United and also struck the winner against Liverpool. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side top the Premier League with Fernandes' will to win shining through

'Tired? At 26-years-old I can't be tired,' he scoffed. 'If I'm tired now, when I arrive at 30 or 32 I will not play. I will play one game in five so, no, I'm not tired.

'Of course, the coach knows what is better for the team and he choose to play with Donny to give some freshness to the team.

'I think it's fair enough because Donny is training really well, he's been important for us and will be more and more important in the future.

'Everyone has to be ready to play in the first XI or to come in, and the most important thing is the team wins games. I think the ones who started (against Liverpool) played very well. The ones who came from the bench helped the team to win and this is the most important.

'For the confidence of the team, it's really important to keep winning. Everyone knows winning against Liverpool is never easy and we made it. Our pressure was really good. We pressed a little bit more than we did at Anfield.

'Personally, of course, scoring the last goal in a game like this against one of the biggest rivals we have is always important.'

Fernandes's fierce will to win is one of the character traits that has rubbed off on his teammates as United have gone to the top of the Premier League ahead of Wednesday's game at home to Sheffield United.

'I always was like this,' he added. 'I don't like to lose. I don't conform that losing games is normal stuff. For me, losing is not normal so my mentality comes from that, you know?

'When I was playing with my friends, my brother, with my neighbours, I never want to lose so I want to win every time. This mentality will be with me for the rest of my life, I think.'

The former Sampdoria and Udinese player admits that the personal accolades will count for very little if he cannot help United lift trophies.

'My confidence is higher, of course,' he said. 'I knew I was coming to a club who wants to win everything, and my mentality and my way to be in my life and football is about winning.


Fernandes insists his desire for success traces back to his childhood when playing with friends. He has also admitted personal accolades will count for little if he can't help United win trophies

'So you have to be confident, you have to trust your teammates, you have to trust yourself, and you have to believe.

'I will believe until it's not more possible, you know? Like when I see someone get the trophy before me then I will have lost my belief.

'I think the most important moment in Manchester, in the club will be when I get a trophy.'

Default Re: Bruno Fernandes

Bruno Fernandes needs to win a trophy to join the list of Manchester United legends like Eric Cantona, says Ryan Giggs after Portuguese star struck winner to knock Liverpool out of the FA Cup at Old Trafford

* Bruno Fernandes was the hero for Manchester United once again in the FA Cup
* The Portuguese star struck a glorious free-kick to dump out rivals Liverpool 3-2
* Talismanic midfielder's influence was compared to United great Eric Cantona
* Ryan Giggs believes Fernandes needs to win silverware to get to those levels


Ryan Giggs says Bruno Fernandes needs to win a trophy to join the likes of Eric Cantona on the list of Manchester United legends.

The Portuguese star struck a glorious free-kick winner in United's 3-2 FA Cup fourth round victory over rivals Liverpool to once again remind everyone of his influence on the side.

The midfielder, 26, has scored 28 goals since arriving at Old Trafford last January with United transforming from a struggling side into Premier League leaders.

His talismanic role in the side has been compared club legend Cantona, who led United to six major honours after arriving at the club in 1992.

After Fernandes took a step closer to winning his coveted first trophy with the club, fellow legend Giggs claimed United's current main man needs to add that silverware in order for him to be considered on the levels of the iconic Frenchman.

'Eric, when we won the FA Cup in 95-96, he was the difference. In the big games he would every often be the difference', Giggs told Stadium Astro.

'Fernandes undoubtedly has had a massive impact on United. There have been comparisons with Eric and the impact he has had – not just his quality but the fact everyone around him seems to be playing better.

'You can just see he is a winner. When things aren't going right he is telling other players, he's having a go at the referee, he is constantly moaning and he wants to win.

'He has been a revelation since he came to United. Like all top players, he has to do it in the big games and then win trophies.'

Since Fernandes joined United from Sporting Lisbon in the winter window of 2020, no team has earned more points in the league than their 72 points.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side's form in the league and cup have began to make fans dream they could once again challenge for silverware, as they continue to wait for their first title since Sir Alex Ferguson left in 2013.

Fans became accustomed to talismans such as Cantona, Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney leading the great United teams of the past, and Fernandes' ability to consistently contribute has been a throwback to those times.

'Of course there are similarities (with Cantona) – penalty takers, scoring and assisting goals, same position', Giggs added, 'The results have changed since he came into the club and generally lifted the club. But, Eric won three or four leagues and the FA Cup – that's the benchmark.

'It's not easy because there is a lot of quality and not a lot of trophies to win. Once he has done that, then you can talk about him and the likes of Cantona.'

impactnya sudah berasa banget, cuma tolak ukur pesepakbola kan dengan trophy, jadi kalo belum bisa mempersembahkan trophy dianggap belum sukses. semoga musim ini Bruno bisa memberikan minimal 1 trophy buat United

Paul Scholes hits out at 'disappointing' Bruno Fernandes after the Manchester United playmaker failed to make an impact against another top side in drab draw at Arsenal - and says his lack of big game form is 'really worrying'

* Manchester United were held by Arsenal as the Red Devils drew 0-0 on Saturday
* Bruno Fernandes was unable to inspire the team in yet another big game
* The Portuguese playmaker has been a standout this season with 11 league goals


Manchester United legend Paul Scholes believes Bruno Fernandes has been 'disappointing' during big games for the club after he failed to inspire the team during their 0-0 draw at Arsenal.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men were held to a stalemate at the Emirates and have come under fire for not being adventurous enough as they dropped further points in the race for the Premier League title.

The Red Devils had led the table for a number of weeks thanks to the form of key playmaker Fernandes, who has 11 goals and seven assists in the league, but the midfielder has been unable to reproduce that quality in season-defining matches.

He hasn't notched a goal or an assist in the last three big league games against Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal, which have all ended goalless.

Scholes says his lack of form in those big games is 'really worrying' and was a factor in the team's failure to see off their rivals.

'They (United) can't seem to win those games [against the other teams at the top],' he told Premier League Productions, via MEN.

'When you're struggling against Sheffield United the other night, you're beaten by them and then you come to a big game, they just can't win them.

'They just can't find a way of doing it. Bruno Fernandes has been disappointing in every single one of them. He's had great numbers, great assists, great goals. In the last five games against big teams, he's had no goals, no assists.

'It's really worrying and that's why United are where they're at. They're in a good position tonight but it's not a position where you think "this team will go on to win the league".

United were the favourites going into the game against Arsenal, who have been rejuvenated under Mikel Arteta despite suffering a woeful start to their campaign.

Scholes slammed their lack of 'desperation' to win against the Gunners, who he said were 'not a great team' and believes it could cost them in their bid to win the title.

'They've come to Arsenal, who aren't a great team, and they haven't won the big game,' he added. 'There is no desperation to win it either. I don't see them throwing bodies forward.

'Arsenal weren't a threat going forward, no (Bukayo) Saka, no (Pierre-Emerick) Aubameyang. United don't do enough to win these big games, they don't throw enough bodies forward and they don't have a desperation to win them and to go on to win the league.'

Despite their minor blip, United remain second in the Premier League table, just three points off current leaders Man City - who have a game in hand.

Solskjaer's men have two home games coming up which they'll be expected to win against Southampton on Tuesday and Everton next weekend.
