DBasia.news – Manchester United face tough matches in the Premier League duel this weekend. Sunday (6/12/2020) tomorrow, MU will visit West Ham with a mission to penetrate the top four.
The Red Devils are currently ranked 9th in the standings with 16 points from 9 matches. It looks bad, but it’s not as bad as it might seem.
MU is only 2 points behind Leicester City in 4th place, which means this weekend’s results can change many things.
If you win, MU has the opportunity to break into the top four, of course on the condition that other teams stumble.
Solskjaer knows United have had a problem with consistency this season, they have had some disappointing results, but have also performed well.
When asked if the possibility of breaking into the top four would be important for the team, Solskjaer replied: “Of course, that would be good for many reasons.”
“We know we have one game left, obviously, but in time we will achieve the same number of games.”
“With a very short pre-season, getting close to the top flight will certainly be a neat achievement at this stage,” he added.
Even so, Solskjaer did not want his team to be too obsessed with the top four. The season is still long, MU still has a lot of homework. This away match can prove the team.
“However, the season is still long. Obviously we have shown good consistency in away games this season. Hopefully we can continue to keep it,” continued Solskjaer.
Furthermore, Solskjaer also shared the team’s news ahead of the duel against West Ham this time. He indicated that Marcus Rashford still had a chance to appear.
“Marcus has trained this morning, not full training. He is currently recovering and hopefully he can be part of the squad that visited,” he concluded.
