Solskjaer challenges Man Utd players after FA Cup elimination

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has challenged his players after their FA Cup elimination by Wolves.

The international break is now upon us and, when asked if the two-week period will feel longer than usual, Solskjaer agreed and proceeded to lay down a challenge to all members of the squad.

“It is happening so we cannot do anything about it," Solskjaer told manutd.com.

“To the players who go away with international teams, go and enjoy, go and play as well as you can. "

“Some of them have been called back into a squad, maybe that gives them a boost, but we just need to come back recharged.

“Whatever you are doing, if you have days off, or play with the national team, come back with a big smile, loads of energy and be ready for the league and Champions League."
