Solskjaer speaks on his outburst with Lingard

Manchester United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has revealed why he had an outburst with Jesse Lingard in his side's 1-0 win against Manchester City.

The game which was not enough to secure a progress for United in the Carabao Cup saw Solskjaer slammed Lingard saying “One more time and you’re f*cking off”.

Solskjaer made the statement in the 58th minute of the game at the Etihad Stadium.

When asked why he acted that way towards Lingard, he said “Just heat of the moment, once in a while.

“When you lose the ball, make sure we try to play more. And in the next moment him and Victor [Lindelof] grew in confidence and started playing.

“Once in a while you're going to make mistakes but if you're going to come here and just defend you've got no chance.

“Yes, we created one or two dangerous moments with the way we tried to play our way out, but that's the way we want the box to express themselves.

“We have to do that to release the pressure.”
