(SOUNDBITE) (English) MANCHESTER UNITED MANAGER, OLE GUNNAR SOLSKJAER, SAYING ABOUT HOW UNITED HAVE GONE FROM REGULARLY WINNING GAMES TO LOSING: "That's football for you.

That's human beings for you.

That's margins and of course you can say we've played, many said easy teams in the beginning, and more difficult teams now.

But, of course, I think it's the whole scenario, I think it's the whole season.

It's been an emotional season for the players, of course.

We've had highs and lows and that's just what you have to deal with as a football player and a coach, a manager.

It's what you deal with as human beings." STORY: Manchester United are confident they will retain the services of Paul Pogba and finish in the top four , the Premier League club's boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said on Friday (April 26).

United sacked Jose Mourinho in December when the club were 11 points adrift of the top four.

Solskjaer has been reeling in their rivals but after some poor games recently United are sixth with three games to go, three points behind fourth-placed Chelsea.

Solskjaer was unbeaten in his first 12 league games in charge but United have since lost four of their last six matches, handing Arsenal and Chelsea the advantage in the race for the top four.

Midfielder Paul Pogba has been linked with a move to Real Madrid by British media in recent weeks, but Solskjaer said he believed the France international, who has a contract until 2021, would stay at Old Trafford next season.

Solskjaer also confirmed goalkeeper David De Gea would keep his place against Chelsea despite going a recent rough patch.

The Spanish goalkeeper has not kept a clean sheet in his last 12 games in all competitions.
