Ole Gunnar Solskjær sarcastically thanked the Tranmere goalkeeper, Scott Davies, for firing up his Manchester United players ahead of their emphatic FA Cup fourth-round victory at Prenton Park. The Rovers keeper bumped into Solskjær outside the changing rooms at Prenton Park following the game and the under-pressure United manager seized the opportunity to respond directly. Solskjær told Davies: “Thanks for helping us fire up the fans and the players.” The 32-year-old laughed off Solskjær’s comment and the United manager headed off to conduct his post-match media duties. The attitude was spot on, it was a difficult pitch but we went about it the right way. We played the right way.
