Solskjaer explains Lingard, Smalling & Young snubs as Man Utd move in 'different' direction
The Red Devils have made plenty of changes under a Norwegian coach, but a number of long-serving performers edged out of the fold
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been explaining why the likes of Jesse Lingard, Chris Smalling and Ashley Young have been edged out of his plans at Manchester United.
A Norwegian tactician inherited a number of long-serving players at Old Trafford when taking the reins from Jose Mourinho in December 2018.
