Another costly error from David de Gea dealt Manchester United's chances of Champions League football a potentially fatal blow as Chelsea ...

MANCHESTER, United Kingdom:Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer insisted he had no regrets over his decision to keep faith with David de Gea after another costly error from the Spaniard helped Chelsea claim a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford on Sunday .

"David has been unbelievable for this club. That just says everything about the supporters," said Solskjaer.De Gea's future at United is uncertain, though, as he has just a year left on his contract and Solskjaer admitted he will talk with his goalkeeper this week to see if it is best to withdraw him from the limelight for the rest of the season.

Arsenal's defeat by Leicester earlier on Sunday means Chelsea also open up a two-point gap on the Gunners. Romelu Lukaku's lofted pass picked out the run of Luke Shaw from left-back and his cut-back found Mata to roll into an unguarded net against his former side.However, they were given a lifeline two minutes before half-time as De Gea's miserable run continued.

"It's a big mountain to climb. We need to focus on our two games, win games again and see what the other games throw up."
