English Premier League outfit Man United slumped again against Wolves in the league clash on Tuesday night which is a major setback to the team in their bid to qualify for the Champions League next season.

Despite the negative result, manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is still positive about Wolves goalkeeper Rui Patricio who gave an impressive performance in the game to help his team see through the Red Devils.

The Wolves goalkeeper made two point-blank range headers from Belgium international Romelu Lukaku and Jesse Lingard in the first half to keep his team in the game. The saves were made by the Portugal international in the second half.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admitted that the goalkeeper was fantastic in the game, stressing that he was in great positions to have made those saves to help his team.

However, the Red Devils boss is unhappy that his team were unable to pick a point in the game as it is now a major setback to the team.

He noted that his team can still break into the top-four but they will need 15 points in their next six games to be able to achieve that. This is the mandate given to the manager when he was handed the job on a permanent deal.
