ENGLAND (Dagbladet): Drømmestarten will no end take for Ole Gunnar Solskjær, who is with the gradually incredible eight victories of the eight possible as a manager.
In the evening, it was Arsenal who had to bite the dust after Manchester United once again showed how effective they can be if the attackers get ferten of the goal.
” It is wonderful to go further in the cup. It is one of the hardest matches you can get, ” says Solskjær to the BBC after the match.
Against Tottenham and Arsenal used Solskjær attackers wide and Jesse Lingard in a so-called false nine. The Norwegian was asked if he is going to continue with the tactic against storlag as Liverpool and PSG, who are waiting on the opposite side later this month.
I’m not going to give the information, ” says Solskjær with laughter in his voice.

Sanchez in the heat
the Norwegian chose to start with Alexis Sanchez and Romelu Lukaku at the top, and the former scored, while the belgian had two assists.
the Particular long-awaited for Sanchez, who has struggled with injury for an extended period of time.

It meant at the same time that Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford were rested. Laguttaket was, and is, everything else than easy for Solskjær.
– When you have good players, it is difficult to exclude them and easy to take them out. It was just as easy to set Sergio (Romero) in the measure in which to insert the Eric (Bailly) in as central defender, but it is difficult to leave out David (de Gea), he is the best goalkeeper in the world, but you trust your players, ” says Solskjær to MUTV.
I have had a headache since I came here, because the team is full of good players. It is up to us to choose the right tactics and players. We need to rest a couple since there are some big battles coming soon. But we have fresh legs, ” he says to the BBC about it, to choose the team.
If Sanchez and Lukaku continues to deliver the goods on the pitch, it will be very difficult to benke two of the five attackers in the form.

Counter-attacking is the classic Manchester United – Wayne Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo, Ji Sung-park – we have scored so many goals in the Arsenal throughout the years, ” says Solskjær and continues:
– It was a big step forward today. It was a real improvement from the Tottenham match. It is easy to be eager and talking about the future, but we just have to work on and think about the next game.
– the Attitudes we show when we storms forward is fantastic, ” says the Norwegian to Manchester United’s own TV channel.
the Draw for the fifth round of the FA cup is on Monday, and Solskjær has no ønskemotstandere.
It had been nice to get home, but today we have beaten one of the favourites. But if you are going to win this tournament, you need one or two decent performances and today was fantastic, believe Solskjær.
