We have got a group that demands a lot of each other. The standard is high, both on training and in a game, it is not just about being a nice guy. We demand maximum effort. I was really proud of how strong we looked. I never thought they threatened our goal in the second half but we missed a little bit of spark to win the game

According to the reports, Harry Maguire called Fred as a “fu***g idiot” when the player misplaced a pass against an attacking Leeds United side. However, the scuffle remained to an argument and not further ahead. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is pleased about the team members’ demanding attitide on the pitch.
