Man Utd captain Young: We exploited Chelsea weaknesses

Manchester United captain Ashley Young has pulled apart their FA Cup win at Chelsea.

It was United's 11th win in their 13 games under current interim manager Ole Gunners Solskjaer.

"Very good to get the win away and the way we did," Young said.

"We knew Chelsea's weaknesses and we knew how we wanted to play the game.

“I think we did that superbly well from the start until the end and it was magnificent and I think we had another gear to go.

"That says a lot about us bouncing back from midweek and getting a result here."

He added: "We beat Spurs away, and Arsenal away and now Chelsea away.

"We knew it would be tough, we had to be on the front foot and we knew we would have to defend but it's a fantastic result for us."
