Solskjaer has every right to rotate but Manchester United’s FA Cup exit was a disastrous display – The Athletic
Category: Knockout Game
Picture an alternative scene in May. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is lifting the FA Cup at Wembley having narrowly finished fifth in the Premier League. Does he keep his job?
Louis van Gaal can answer that one.
So, when it comes to scrutinising Solskjaers selection for the quarter-final against Leicester, context is required. Manchester Uniteds manager said he had no regrets about his line-up afterwards, and while that may strike as obduracy amid the wreckage of a disastrous display, it also points to a clarity of thought in the practicalities of life at Old Trafford.
United supporters are perfectly entitled to think a club with the biggest revenue in England should be able to battle to the end in all competitions, and certainly put up a better fight in a knockout game against a squad built at a fraction of the cost.
