‘Man United Have Come Through A Sticky Patch’- Solskjaer

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says Manchester United have “come through a sticky patch” and insists his young side have “always believed” in themselves.

Recent victories over Tottenham and Manchester City gave United back-to-back league wins for the first time this season and lifted them to within five points of the top four.

Despite boasting an impressive record against fellow ‘top-six’ sides, United have lost to Crystal Palace, West Ham, Newcastle and Bournemouth this term, and draws against newly-promoted sides Sheffield United and Aston Villa raised question marks over Solskjaer’s future.

However, the Norwegian remains confident his players will improve with experience and believes they have come through a difficult period.

“Consistency is vital in football if you’re going to win trophies and this young team need to learn how to put on performances when they don’t feel like it, when they don’t feel great,” the United boss said.

“You don’t feel great every single time that you walk onto the pitch and we’ve had some games this year where we’ve not been able to perform as well as we would have liked.

“That’s a learning curve and I’m sure these young boys in the next couple of years will improve and hopefully for the rest of the season.

“We’ve come through a sticky patch with bad injuries and bad results and we’re looking brighter now.

“Results are the proof in the end but inside we’ve always believed what we are doing. There’s going to be ups and downs but we are on the right track.

“I see these boys every single day in training and what their attitude is, as well as the skills and the quality they’ve got, so I’ve not been that worried.”
