Ole Gunnar Solskjaer declared Manchester United's season had started after Saturday's comprehensive victory at Newcastle. "After the last result, that made this game even bigger," Solskjaer told Sky Sports. "But we showed great resilience, great character to come back, handled the setback really well and we were led by an inspirational captain." It was the kind of morale-boosting performance the centre-back needed following his midweek sending-off while on international duty with England. "He was excellent, he scored a goal and led by example," Solskjaer added.
