Wolves 2-1 Manchester United: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer blasts players for putting in worst performance of his managerial reign
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer blasted his players for putting in the ‘poorest performance’ of his reign as Manchester United’s caretaker manager in Saturday’s FA Cup defeat by Wolves.The Red Devils were knocked out the FA Cup – their most ‘winnable’ competition this season – at the quarter-final stage, with Nuno’s side triumphing on a famous night at Molineux.2

Raul Jimenez’s strike on the turn and a superb solo effort from Diogo Jota put Wolves on course for victory against a ragged United side lacking the skill, verve and intensity that Solskjaer had instilled.A late Marcus Rashford goal did nothing to lift the mood and the interim manager had no complaints about the result of this quarter-final clash.“It was a big step backwards, I’ve got to say,” Solskjaer said. “That’s the poorest performance since I’ve come here.

I’ve said to them not to you.
