Jose Mourinho says he'd be proud but frustrated if he was Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after Sunday's 1-1 draw with Liverpool.

United almost pulled off a win over their fierce rivals and league leaders before Adam Lallana scored an equaliser with five minutes remaining.

And Mourinho believes Solskjaer would've been upset not to take all three points.

"Liverpool did something in the last 20 minutes of the game to give Man Utd problems," Mourinho told Sky Sports. "They got more people through the middle, more people in the box. But I think Ole and United, after such a great effort, will feel a bit disappointed.

"At the start of the game I was asking United for heart. They had it but they had more than that. They were organised, they had a gameplan that they stuck to. But [Graeme Souness] asked before the game if they could keep the defensive intensity for 90 minutes and they couldn't.

"Liverpool were on top at the end. The result is probably fair but if I were Ole I'd be proud but also frustrated."
