Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was absolutely furious with the Premier League after today’s 3-1 win over Everton away.
“It’s an absolute joke, we were set up to fail”
Ole speaks about how he tried to rearrange this fixture but the Premier League didn’t allow it as they played in Turkey on Thursday night and then have the early kick off on a Saturday. Once you take travel time into account, it’s no wonder that players suffer injuries and Ole was not happy.

Multiple players suffered knocks in the win but Ole has stated that no injury is worth 3 points let alone 3 first team players now a worry for after the International break.
Solskjær: "It doesn't look great [for Shaw & Rashford], and Victor [Lindelöf] hopefully not too bad with his back as well. Any injury, when it's a serious injury, isn't worth the points really. But of course we got the three points today." #mulive [mu]

Should the Premier League have rearranged the fixture or is it down to the manager to rotate the squad accordingly, what do you think?
