'We like to make it hard for ourselves!' - Solskjaer says confidence will come for Manchester United after West Ham win

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer joked that Manchester United like to make games harder for themselves after they snatched a slender victory against West Ham at Old Trafford in the Premier League on Sunday.

The Red Devils came away with the three points in a top-four tussle thanks to Liam Dawson's own goal off Scott McTominay's header early into the second half, to lift them back into second above Leicester at the expense of old manager David Moyes.

With a pair of crunch clash knockout games to come in the next week - including a Europa League last-16 second leg with Milan and a FA Cup quarter-final tie with the Foxes - Solskjaer admitted that he had hoped to claim a bigger margin of victory but was nevertheless pleased with his side's result.
