Solskjaer said there will be no excuses

So which excuses won't he be using?


Manchester United boss Solskjaer said: "Tonight it was about a lack of quality compared to them. They deserved to win.

"I'm disappointed to concede at two set-plays. We didn't have the margins with us. After they scored, we had more of the ball but we didn't create enough.

"Any team would miss Edinson [Cavani]. He could have caused havoc with his movement in the box. We did start to build momentum but we didn't have the edge to create a goal. We did put them under pressure.

"It is not just about Bruno [Fernandes] - the whole team has to create chances. Manchester City played well and we needed to be spot on. We didn't have the last pass."

Can't help but notice him making an excuse about Cavani right in the middle of all that...
 
So Villa will play tonight with kids (u23 & u18) but the game against Spurs on Wednesday will likely be rearranged.

What a farce. Spurs now will be 2 games behind because of other teams covid issues and you just know that more and more games will be postponed because of this

According to Twitter, the logical thing would be to play the already postponed Fulham game in its place

The fact Fulham play Chelsea two days later is immaterial, of course...

Told you all the other day about not wanting games in hand.

Those clubs that get Corona-ed via the moron hubris of their staff
(players etc) need to be financially penalised as a function of the
backlog that fixture cancellation is caused therein.

IMHO there is now also grounds for getting the League cup final
done ASAP between its normal and current planned date
(more so given that Citeh and Spurs also have UEFA fixtures) .
Cancel one PL match week that weekend if necessary, but do it.

No TV money in cancelling fixtures...

...and there's your answer.

Then give the threat of an army of "you want to kill grandma" libtards on their case.

They seem to respond well to such ; although they could call the bluff
(specifically the intersection of yer average libtard with sporting
activity of any kind being near zero) .

The Chelsea game can be moved. No reason why they couldn't put it back a day or two.
