    Manchester United

    Few more bits and bobs from Man Utd manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on BT Sport...

    On Scott McTominay's reaction to being made captain: "He delivered and he always does. He's a leader and I thought today I'd give it him to see how he reacts. He was brilliant today.

    "We have always trusted our young men coming through and Scott is one who we believe has the Manchester United DNA in him and knows what it is to be a Manchester United player."

    On Jesse Lingard's performance: "He's been out for a while but he started brightly and then he tired as you'd expect."

    On Eric Bailly, who was taken off injured before half-time: "It is his neck I think, his head is fine but I've not spoken to him. It is not concussion."

    FT: Man Utd 1-0 Watford

    Manchester United

    More from Ole Gunnar Solksjaer, speaking to BT Sport: "After 15-20 minutes it seemed like a balloon popped, they came into the game and we gave them confidence, they gave us a good game.

    "We started giving them the ball back easily and we started to complicate it. Maybe we had one or two out of position and then suddenly they counter attack.

    "And when you've got Andre Gray and Ismaila Sarr running at you it puts your heart rate up!"

    Watford

    Watfiord head coach Xisco speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "We played a very good team but our team had a perfect performance and we need to continue.

    "When you come to these places it is perfect, it is like a dream. Now is a difficult moment for everyone with Covid and it is difficult to come here and not see the fans.

    "I told the players they gave everything. It was our style - they played with high intensity. We have had a little time together but you can see I have improved the guys."

    FT: Man Utd 1-0 Watford

    On Eric Bailly's injury, Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer added: “I think it was his neck. I don’t think it was concussion so that is a positive but we have got to do scans. “

  10. 'As long as I've got the manager's trust I'm happy'published at 22:22 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2021

    FT: Man Utd 1-0 Watford

    Manchester United

    More from Scott McTominay on his goal tonight and form this season: "We work a lot on set pieces, so to see one of them go in is something we worked on. I need to start scoring more headers - I'm six foot.

    "For the manager, he has been nothing but amazing since he came and I have a lot to thank him for.

    "But the best way of thanking him is putting in performances on the pitch and doing your best. As long as I've got the manager's trust I'm happy doing my job."

  11. 'A monster of a human being'published at 22:20 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2021

    FT: Man Utd 1-0 Watford

    Manchester United

    Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer speaking to BBC Match of the Day: “The most important thing in the cup is that you go through so that will make everyone happy but the first 15-20 minutes I think were the highlights of our game. I think we played some very good stuff, created chances and then we let them back into the game but we are through."

    On making changes: “They had a chance to prove they could play the next game and the game after and get some match fitness. We will need all of them over the season and that was part of the reason we made changes.

    "I’m delighted we are through. I told them I didn’t expect them to start like house on fire. I expected them to grow into the game. The opposite happened more or less. We started brightly."

    On Scott McTominay: "Scott has had a very good season. He is being more and more dangerous, we know he can be a box-to-box midfielder. He should have scored a few more on set-plays before now because he is a monster of a human being. I am very happy he got the goal."

  14. 'Being made captain was surreal'published at 22:16 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2021

    FT: Man Utd 1-0 Watford

    Manchester United

    Manchester United match-winner Scott McTominay, speaking to BT Sport: "We started really well and then for the first half an hour we were really good, moved the ball really well and there was some good combination play.

    "Then we couldn't find it after that as well. The second half I didn't think we played anywhere near our level.

    "For the boys coming into the team it is difficult, they haven't played for a long time. The manager said 'get your rhythm' and he probably wasn't expecting the rhythm we got in the first 30 minutes. But then there were some tired minds. But credit to the boys."

    On being made captain for the night: "When the manager told me it was a surreal moment. I've been here since I had just turned five, so that's 18 or 19 years associated with the club and it is a huge honour. I love this club and it has been my whole life."
