Ole Solskjaer Man United EPL
Ole Solskjaer Man United

Man United have really struggled to get their act going during the 2019-20 season and as of now, Solskjaer’s men have managed to win just a single game out of their past five matches.

Next up, they will take on Arsenal at Old Trafford and as of now, most pundits feel the Gunners will be able to pick up a win on Monday.

The Red Devils have found it really hard to score goals from open play this season and things might get even harder now with the likes of Martial and Rashford fighting hard to be fit for this match.

Paul Pogba is also out with an injury and if this trio misses out the Man United vs Arsenal clash then it will be really hard for the youngsters not only keep Arsenal at bay but also to score against them.

But despite the doom and gloom, Solskjaer remains pretty optimistic and has claimed that his team only need to get a few things rights.

“In my own words? For me, it’s a team improving, evolving. I think it’s a young team, the culture is there,” Solskjaer said(as quoted).

“I see them every single day in training and we don’t have any issues with attitude, work rate or desire.”

“Now it’s (a question of) can we trust ourselves? Can we find that composure?

“You could see against Astana and Rochdale, the boys want to impress, they want to do well and maybe they rushed a finish at times. It’s getting there.”

On paper, Arsenal are without a doubt the favourites going into this match but the Gunners have a backline which has faltered during the past few games and Ole will be very much aware of that.

Mason Greenwood and Daniel James are blessed with blistering pace and the manager will be clearly eager to use this to their team’s advantage against Sokratis and David Luiz on Monday.
