Solskjær Bemoans Celtic's Failings

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits the Molde squad are putting in special work on the training field ahead of their league fixture against Tromso on Sunday to compensate for the fact they faced lower-grade players in the Europa League incapable of punishing their errors.
The Man Utd legend says it was easy for his players to adopt a swashbuckling mentality in the 2 matches against Celtic because their opponents were neither sharp nor smart enough to exploit spaces left at the back.
“Sometimes last night we switched off and thought it didn't really matter, because they weren't going to punish us. But If we become open and detached from each other against good players and good teams back home, we'll be punished.
“It’s something that didn't happen to us in Scotland. No disrespect to Ronnie Deila's lads, but they weren't not clever enough players or quick enough thinkers to punish us".

Celtic assistant manager described the comments as nonsensical.
