"The performance was fantastic. Defensively, we were absolutely perfect. The next game now is Liverpool and we have just got to focus on that one."

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

City game postponed

Due to United's participation in the Emirates FA Cup sixth round at Wolves, our Premier League derby match against Manchester City will be rearranged. A new date will be confirmed in due course.

"We played confused football in the second half but in the first half we played well. I can understand our fans because the result wasn't really good and we are out of the FA Cup."

Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri

Paul Pogba
It was a beautiful win

"It was a beautiful win today. A great performance from the team, all of them. It wasn’t easy. We went to get that win from far, but we did it and we’re really, really pleased with that win. Obviously, we’re Manchester United and we play to win trophies. He [Ole] took this job because obviously he can do it. He trusts us and we trust him and we go for it. You never know if you’re going to win, but we go for it and we play to win obviously."

Ander Herrera
I'd like to praise our substitutes

"We had to fight until the end. We knew how to play them. I played today a more offensive role, because we knew they struggled on that side of the pitch. But, I think a fantastic game. When you play with these kind of players you can make that run and you know you will get the ball. But I would like to speak also about Alexis, Andreas and Scott. The way they came into the game. A world class player is Alexis and the way he fought, this is Manchester United and this is what we want." * Speaking to BBC Sport

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
My reaction to the FA Cup draw

"An away tie again, you know, we've had Arsenal and Chelsea so we hoped for a home game but that's it. Wolves away and we have to do it the hard way. They're a very tough team to play against – very tough."

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
It was a fantastic performance

“The performance was fantastic, just the tactics worked. Obviously we asked today Ander [Herrera] and Paul [Pogba] our midfielders, next to Nemanja [Matic] to go a bit higher up and get into the box more often, with Marcus [Rashford] and Romelu [Lukaku] wider. So we worked [on it] and the defending in the second half, when we had to, was fantastic. Chris [Smalling] has been out two months and just played one game and he was brilliant.”

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
We were perfect defensively

"Chelsea are a good team. They've got their way of playing, which is hard to play against. I thought, defensively, Juan did a fantastic job in between Jorginho and the two centre-backs. Defensively, we were absolutely perfect. With the ball, we could have done better and kept it more in the second half and controlled it but, then again, we kept a clean sheet."

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
Our focus is now on Liverpool

"The next game is now is Liverpool and we have just got to focus on that one. It's a tough game going to Paris and having to win 2-0 but we did that tonight - we won 2-0. The league will be very important for us, of course, but a trophy is fantastic to end up with. The FA Cup is one of the best trophies you can win. I played in 1999, against you Alan [Shearer], I think you played. So it's a great game and we want to finish the season off with a bang." * Speaking to BBC Sport
