Manchester United haven't had a great start to their 2020-21 season which has resulted to increase in pressure on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
The Norwagian manager was rumoured to be sacked if going into last weekend clash against Everton.
This was following loss to Arsenal in the Premier League and Istanbul Basaksehir in the UEFA Champions League.
Meanwhile, the Red Devils bounced back with a victory against Everton. United travelled to Goodison Park on Saturday early kick off to face Carlo Ancelotti side.
Manchester United went behind following a goal from Bernard but Bruno Fernandes scored twice just before half time as Manchester United went 2-1 after 45 minutes.
After the first half, Manchester United were forced to make a change. Luke Shaw was forced off and it's been confirmed that the English international has been ruled out for at least a month with a hamstring injury.
The left-back was replaced by Axel Tuanzebe in the 67th minute having picked up a knock.
“They set up the boys to fail,” Solskjaer said. “We have got Luke Shaw injured because we have played loads of games this season already, been to Turkey on Wednesday, got back at 4am on Thursday and we are playing a lunchtime kick-off on Saturday.
“It is an absolute shambles and I cannot praise the boys enough for the character they have shown. That is all I want to talk about. Those boys deserve better than being thrown out here to fail today. The authorities set us up to fail.”
Although, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer side completed the victory when Edinson Cavani scored the third late in injury time.
This means that Manchester United new signing Alex Telles will have the opportunity to get some game time once the international break is over.
