Solskjaer admits Manchester United 'haven't been good enough' to challenge for Champions League place

The Norwegian says that the Old Trafford outfit's performances throughout the season didn't warrant a place in the top four

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has hit out at his Manchester United players, saying that they “haven’t been good enough to challenge for the Champions League”.

A 1-1 draw away at already-relegated Huddersfield Town means that United's slim chances of finishing in the top four are now over, consigning them to either a fifth or sixth-placed finish with one game remaining.

Solskjaer enjoyed a remarkable start in the Old Trafford dugout after replacing Jose Mourinho on an initial interim basis, but the shock draw in West Yorkshire continues their recent hapless run of just two wins in 10 games.
