Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confessed he used to tell Sir Alex Ferguson the odd white lie about how fit he was in order to make Manchester United's matchday squad.
The current United boss was talking about Marcus Rashford's fitness after Thursday night's UEFA Europa League quarter-final win over Granada when he recalled his own experiences as a player.
Rashford played with a sore foot and scored as United secured a 2-0 lead to take back to Old Trafford next week.
Solskjaer was also able to sub the forward off for Edinson Cavani after 66 minutes and preserve his fitness for Sunday's visit to Tottenham Hotspur.
