Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has praised Paul Pogba as “one of the best attacking midfielders in the world” after played superbly in his team’s recent victory over Chelsea in the FA Cup.
Chelsea got defeated 2 goals to nil by Manchester United with goals from Pogba and Ander Herrera.
His words, “It was a great response, playing against one of the best defensive midfielders in the world with [N’Golo] Kante next to him,”
“We know [Pogba] is one of the best attacking midfielders in the world.
“You want to see a reaction,” said Solskjaer, who has won 11 of his 13 games in charge. “The players have been brilliant in training. We were quite confident going into this game that we had found the right team selection and temperament.
“There’s a balance between being too eager after losing a game, so today was brilliant.
“We lost the final to Chelsea last year. My last game was a loss to Chelsea in the FA Cup final. Last time we beat them in the cup was 20 years ago, apparently.
“We want to get to the final. It’ll be a tough away game against Wolves, but it seems like both we and our fans love the away games. It didn’t feel like an away game with that support behind the goal.”
“We’ve got to build on the positives,” “We play Liverpool next, but Chelsea, Arsenal and us will fight for that fourth position.
“There are three good teams fighting for that one position. But this was about getting through to the next round.”
