'Greenwood's an 18-year-old kid who needs managing' - Solskjaer slams England & Southgate

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has criticised Gareth Southgate and the Football Association for calling up Mason Greenwood to the England squad after Manchester United asked for him to be rested.

Greenwood earned his first senior call up for the Nations League fixtures earlier this month and came off the bench for his debut in the win against Iceland.

The 18-year-old then landed himself in hot water after breaking Covid-19 rules by meeting two girls, with Phil Foden, in the team hotel, resulting in both players being sent home from the camp early.
