Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has put his goalkeeper under the bus for a mistake that cost United a game, apparently.
De Gea’s silly error from Mount’s shot may have given Chelsea the 2nd goal but Ole’s tactics had firmly put the Blues on the wheel anyway.
As is complimentary with Ole’s PR tactics, he deflected his tactical naivety down to problems with De Gea and ‘no time to reflect’.
“I can’t speak for David de Gea’s confidence but he is mentally very strong,” Solskjaer said. “He knows he should save that one 100 times out of 100 but that’s football for you.”
“I made the decision to play him [De Gea] and mentally he was ready for it,” added the Norwegian.
“There is no time to feel sorry for ourselves, we have two games this week and then the Europa League. We will get our heads ready and our legs ready and go again,” he said.
“They [Pogba and Martial] have played a lot of football so it’s just about freshening up the team but also about giving them the chance to make a difference when they come on.”
Ole also spoke of the nasty injury to Eric Bailly: “He is hopefully fine, he had a cut on his head but hopefully he will be fine,” he said.
At this point, you dont know who deserves who more.
