Ole Gunnar Solskjaer calls for unity following David de Gea's latest howlers

The Spanish stopper made two mistakes as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men lost to Chelsea in Sunday's FA Cup semi-final.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was not in the mood to talk about David De Gea as the Manchester United goalkeeper’s latest calamitous display dominated the build-up to a crucial Premier League clash with West Ham.

Just a month on from lauding the 29-year-old as the best in the world, the Red Devils manager’s goalkeeping dilemma increased after the Spain international cost his side a shot at FA Cup success on Sunday.

De Gea did not cover himself in glory for Olivier Giroud’s opener and was guilty of a shocker within a minute of the second half as a long-range Mason Mount strike somehow beat him, putting Chelsea in control of a semi-final they would win 3-1.

It was an alarming display that compounded some other glaring errors over the last 18 months, raising awkward questions about his status as number one ahead of Wednesday’s vital clash with West Ham.

Solskjaer suggested Luke Shaw will be available to face West Ham after missing two matches with an ankle complaint, but Eric Bailly is expected to be unavailable after a nasty-looking clash of heads on Sunday saw the defender taken to hospital.

“Eric stayed down in London after for all the checks, so he’s done all the checks,” the United boss said.

“I didn’t see him yesterday. He’s following the protocols that’s needed so, for me, I don’t think that he’ll be ready for this game. I’ve not seen him this morning yet.

“I think everyone’s available apart from that. No other injuries from last week.”
