MANCHESTER, England -- "Our strength in depth is plain for everyone to see now," wrote Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in his programme notes ahead of West Ham United's visit to Old Trafford in the third round of the Carabao Cup on Wednesday. The Manchester United manager may need a rethink after watching his much-changed team lose 1-0, and with it one of four chances to win a trophy this season.
You can argue this was a United team filled with players without any sort of rhythm after watching the opening weeks of the season from the bench, but they should still have beaten West Ham, who made 10 changes of their own.
