United manager knows he needs success in Carabao Cup, with
Pep Guardiola offering some encouraging words
Before Manchester City’s visit for Tuesday’s Carabao Cup semi-final first leg Ole Gunnar Solskjær offered an intriguing take on Manchester United’s status. “We are still, in our own heads, one of the biggest clubs in the world but we know that’s going to take time,” the manager said.
If this poses the question of how soon, more than a year into Solskjær’s tenure, the short-term mission is clearer: to reach the end of this season still in the job.
