Manchester United suffered a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Leicester which officially led to the crowning of Manchester City as Premier League champions for this season. Ole was forced to play his second team to cope up with the hectic schedule of 3 games in 5 days. However, they will not take this defeat lightly and play their full strength squad next as they welcome their oldest rivals Liverpool to Old Trafford. Liverpool’s Champions League fate seems to be going in the wrong direction and now depends on Chelsea dropping some points in their last 3 games.
