Man United rout Newcastle as James, Martial, fringe players make case for long-term roles under Solskjaer

MANCHESTER, England -- Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is saying all the right things about pushing Manchester City to the wire, but he would be forgiven if he doesn't even believe it himself. Manchester United are back up to second in the Premier League table after a 3-1 win over Newcastle on Sunday, but with City making it 18 consecutive wins at Arsenal earlier on Sunday, the odds-makers give Solskjaer's team less than a 1% chance of winning the title.

To put it into context, the experts believe there's an equal probability of them being relegated instead.
