Ole reacts as West Ham kicks Man Utd out of the Carabao Cup
Man Utd suffered a defeat in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night as West Ham defeated them right at Old Trafford.
The game ended in a 1-0 scoreline in favour of the Hammers, thanks to a goal from Manuel Lanzini.
Following the Red Devils recent defeat, they have now been kicked out of the tournament.
Reacting to the latest defeat, Man Utd coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has refused to blame his players as he stressed that the Res Devils have more important games to play in the Premier League, Uefa Champions League and the FA.
Ole said it’s a long season and his players gave in their best, and as such, he can’t fault their attitude.
“We’re at the start of the season, we know it’s going to be a long journey. Champions League, FA Cup, Premier League – we’ve got lots of games. We just keep doing what we’re doing to try and get results. We’ve started the season OK, apart from being out of this cup, which isn’t great. And we haven’t had a good result in Europe but we’ll be ready for Saturday,” Solskjaer told Sky Sports.
Man Utd will now face Aston Villa this weekend in the Premier League.
