Juan Mata Promises Big to United Fans After International Break

Juan Mata has told Manchester United supporters that the club will come back from the international break ‘fully charged’ and ready to bounce back from defeat.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side fell to their second successive defeat over the weekend after they crashed out of the FA Cup with a 2-1 defeat away at Wolves.

The disappointing defeat dealt a big dent into United’s dreams of silverware this season after goals from Raul Jimenez and Diogo Jota sent the home side into the last four of the competition.

It was a night of mixed emotions for Mata who tasted defeat on his comeback appearance from injury. However, the Spanish midfielder insists he is now raring to go and will look to put things right when they face Watford in the Premier League next week.

“It hurts to say that Saturday’s defeat against Wolverhampton was deserved,” he wrote in his weekly blog.

“As it saw us head out of the FA Cup and you all know the hopes that we had riding on this competition, especially after progressing through some really tough knock-out ties. We fought until the very last minute but they were better than us and we have to accept it.

“These are the kinds of situations that put your personality and the spirit in the dressing room to the test, which is something we’ve talked about when we have been winning. I’m sure that we are going to leave this defeat behind and head towards the most important part of the season with our batteries fully charged after the international break. The time is approaching.

“It is a shame, as the FA Cup game saw my return from the injury that I suffered against Liverpool and I was feeling good on the physical side of things. I featured in the later stages and felt fine, although what would have made me feel even better would have been mounting a comeback up on the scoreboard too.”
