Manchester United interim manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, has hailed the brilliance of goalkeeper, David De Gea, following their 1-0 win over Tottenham on Sunday.
Marcus Rashford scored the only goal in the first half, to ensure United won their sixth straight win under Solskjaer.
The Norwegian hailed Rashford along with Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard and Anthony Martial, for forming a fine attacking unit.
“To come away here and beat Tottenham is fantastic, we hung on in the second half, but you’re allowed to have a good goalkeeper.
“One or two were excellent saves, but the rest are saves you’d expect to make David to make.
“When you’ve got the pace of Rashford and Lingard and the cleverness of Pogba. The pass from Paul is how we got the goal, and the defensive work from Jesse.
“Jesse is more of a link player and Rashford and Martial are more direct.
“It’s good that we’ve got different ways of playing against different teams. Second half we could have scored two or three ourselves, it wasn’t that one sided even though they put us under pressure,” Solskjaer said after the game.
