Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says having a fit Eric Bailly is a big boost for Man Utd

“I think last season proved to us how we can defend at our best,” Solskjaer told reporters at his press conference ahead of the trip to Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday.

“Yeah, last week [against Crystal Palace] wasn’t fantastic – we conceded sloppy goals, but our defensive record from last season shows with [Victor Lindelof] and Harry [Maguire] how good a partnership they were.

“It’s the whole team, defending as a team. Eric is fit again, which is a big bonus for us and I’m looking forward to seeing him develop and play more games this season because we’ve been waiting for him to… well, first, be fit and then to play more regularly.”
