Solskjaer tells Man Utd players: Get over it or you're dropped

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has sent a simple message to his Manchester United players after their loss to PSG: get over it or don't play.

The Red Devils were outclassed at Old Trafford as PSG won 2-0 in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie, the club's heaviest defeat in the competition at home.

But Solskjaer says he will drop any of his players who are weighed down by the loss.

"Don't feel sorry for yourself," said Solskjaer. "This is something to learn from. It was a level up from what we're used to.

"That's part of learning when you're young. Many of our players are very young.

"It was the first time Jesse Lingard and Marcus Rashford will play a proper Champions League game at Old Trafford. Learn from that. Move forward.

"We have Chelsea and Liverpool in the next two games. Whoever feels sorry for themselves will not play probably."
