Quotes corner

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer: “If you end up with zero or one point after two games, you need to win the last four probably.

“It’s still not a must-win game but it’s a very important game definitely.

“As I said after Young Boys, home games if you get three wins and you win one away game then you should be through, or you will be through.

“The focus is on three points. We’ve been looking at Villarreal again, looking at the final, what we can do better, what worked and what was good in that game and we’ll get a good response from the weekend, of course.”
