Man Utd boss Solskjaer happy with Pogba penalty change

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was pleased with Paul Pogba's new spotkick technique for his double in victory over West Ham.

Pogba stripped down his past long run to score twice from the spot.

"It is up to him how he takes them and I am happy as the ball goes in, but I like that way of running up to the ball and smashing it in," said a delighted Solskjaer.

"The second one was really good, it went right into the corner so the goalkeeper couldn't get it even though he dived the right way.

"Paul is practising penalties all the time, he is confident and mentally very strong."
