thedailymirror--2020-11-08--Solskjaer still has players' backing despite Man Utd's total inconsistency

Amid all his justified anger at his side 's “ joke ” of a fixture list , Ole Gunnar Solskjaer paused long enough to put his side ’ s performance into context .
“ They were on their knees , ” he said .
“ So to come here after not getting back from Turkey until five on Thursday morning and win like that…well , that character is amazing .
The mentality , the determination .
It was all there.
” He may have added they did it against an Everton side who had worked all week on a play-book @ @ @ @ @ @ @ against one of the world ’ s best coaches who knows exactly how to twist the knife .
He wouldn ’ t say so himself but he could also have added that his Manchester United team were not just on their knees because of tiredness .
The pressure of their situation – and the unrelenting questions about their manager – have exposed a mental frailty at times .
It is little wonder .
If this victory showed anything , it is United ’ s almost schizophrenic character .
Coming as it did so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it offers a stark comment on Solskjaer ’ s reign .
This is a manager who began in the Old Trafford hot seat with one defeat in 17 but ended that season with two wins in 12 .
The following season it was three wins in 12 to start but just two defeats in 25 at the end of last season .
Now they have a lamentable single point from 12 at home but nine from nine away .
There is one thing consistent about his side…their total inconsistency .
To go a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ – and have their defence ripped wide apart by the mere presence of Dominic Calvert-Lewin ’ s aerial threat – was a danger sign that blared like a klaxon .
Yet somehow United recovered from that brutal exposure , somehow found some fluency , and scored two wonderfully simple goals of their own to fight back and then cling on , albeit by their fingertips , in a frantic finale when Abdoulaye Doucoure should have , scored , and the visitors swept to the other end to finish the job .
That showed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hasn ’ t yet lost his players .
They still are ready to fight for him , as he implied with his passionate comments afterwards .
“ I can ’ t praise the boys enough for the character that they ’ ve shown .
It was important , ” he said .
“ I like everything about my team – since yesterday , we could see they would not let anyone take anything when we are unfairly treated .
Fair play , every single one of them gave everything , the mentality was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ root cause of Manchester United 's inconsistency ?
Have your say here .
“ Fernandes was brilliant .
He ’ s a great character .
Like everyone else – you could see the determination in the team .
The mentality , even though they were on their knees at the end.
” Fernandes , along with the equally impressive Marcus Rashford , was the difference , scoring a fine header from Luke Shaw ’ s simple cross to level Bernard ’ s opener , and then chipping in as his strike partner distracted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ United ’ s front line hid a mundanity in the rest of their play .
They were not even bullied by Calvert-Lewin , just brushed aside at times .
And that one routine cross from Shaw aside , their full backs don ’ t penetrate as modern full backs should .
There is not enough creativity outside Fernandes and Rashford and that leads to an inconsistency when the pair don ’ t produce magic .
The concern is , the coaching and tactics is not bringing out the best of a talented squad @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
For Solskjaer , though , it is a matter of maturity , not coaching .
They are inconsistent because of the workload , he said , but also because of concentration .
“ If we can get this determination , mindset , approach every single game , we ’ ll be hard to play against , ” he said .
“ You see all the tackles that Scott and Fred were winning in the middle there , we ’ re tight , we ’ re compact , we win the ball , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ spaces , that ’ s how we want to see these boys all the time .
We ’ re very pleased with that.

With back-to-back defeats fresh in the memory and a trip to Turkey taking its toll, United dug deep to beat Everton in the latest chapter of their topsy-turvy season
Amid all his justified anger at his side's “joke” of a fixture list, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer paused long enough to put his side’s performance into context.
“They were on their knees,” he said. “So to come here after not getting back from Turkey until five on Thursday morning and win like that…well, that character is amazing. The mentality, the determination. It was all there.”
He may have added they did it against an Everton side who had worked all week on a play-book uniquely equipped to hurt them.
And against one of the world’s best coaches who knows exactly how to twist the knife.
He wouldn’t say so himself but he could also have added that his Manchester United team were not just on their knees because of tiredness.

The pressure of their situation – and the unrelenting questions about their manager – have exposed a mental frailty at times.
It is little wonder.
If this victory showed anything, it is United’s almost schizophrenic character.
Coming as it did so soon after a lamentable European midweek performance it offers a stark comment on Solskjaer’s reign.
This is a manager who began in the Old Trafford hot seat with one defeat in 17 but ended that season with two wins in 12.
The following season it was three wins in 12 to start but just two defeats in 25 at the end of last season.
Now they have a lamentable single point from 12 at home but nine from nine away.
There is one thing consistent about his side…their total inconsistency.
It wasn’t evident at Goodison.
To go a goal down to a simple punt upfield – and have their defence ripped wide apart by the mere presence of Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s aerial threat – was a danger sign that blared like a klaxon.

In many ways , the fourth run of The Crown has been the one that we have all been waiting for as it answers the question on how the drama will portray the iconic Princess Diana .
Now the moment is finally here and it was certainly worth the wait .

Despite often centring each of its ten episodes around @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ever does the show feel focused on more obvious running plot threads .

The Loose Women panel were very literally crying with laughter as Judi Love explained her aversion to thongs .

Her story left her co-stars Andrea McLean, Brenda Edwards and Kelle Bryan in stitches, with viewers on Twitter saying how much they love her.
Swinging a leopard print thong around her head, Judi said: "Back in the days we could do all of this but now I'm like no. Maybe a little Brazilian thing to the side but no.

Tyson Fury believes Oleksandr Usyk would be a `` lamb to the slaughter '' against the world 's elite heavyweights .

I don ’ t know , '' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that performance I can say that none of the top 15 heavyweights out there are sweating Oleksandr Usyk at the moment , unfortunately .
`` None of us are quaking .
Is that it ?
Everyone ’ s like , 'Is that what all the hype was about ? '
`` This is the heavyweight game and heavyweights ai n't like they were years ago , and Chisora ’ s probably the smallest heavyweight out there .
`` Being brutally honest , I think when he fights a big heavyweight who can punch @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a lamb to slaughter .
`` My opinion of it is – it ’ s the heavyweight division and not the cruiserweight division for a reason .
`` I understand look , all cruiserweights that do well want to step up to heavyweight to get that big money .
They all want a piece of the pie , but there ’ s divisions for a reason .
`` After his last performance , I honestly thought he was better than he was because I highly rated Oleksandr Usyk as a master technician as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there was nothing that impressed me to be fair . ''

Here are the answers to your questions about the vaccine:
Is this big news?
Yes. These are interim findings and studies will continue but analysis shows that the Pfizer vaccine can prevent more than 90% of people from getting Covid-19.
The vaccine has been tested on 43,500 people in six countries and no safety concerns have been raised.
Pfizer plans to apply to the US regulator the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for emergency approval to use the vaccine by the end of the month.
The analysis was carried out after 94 confirmed cases of Covid-19 were found among those taking part in the trial.
Sir John Bell, regius professor of medicine at Oxford University and a member of the Government's vaccine taskforce, indicated people could look forward to a normal life in the coming months.
Asked if people could look forward to a return to normal life by the spring, Sir John told BBC Radio 4's The World At One: "Yes, yes, yes, yes. I am probably the first guy to say that but I will say that with some confidence."
