Man Utd boss Solskjaer hints Greenwood will start against Arsenal

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has hinted Mason Greenwood will start against Arsenal.

United are in the midst of another injury crisis ahead of the visit of the Gunners on Monday night.

Both Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford are set to miss the meeting with Unai Emery's men, with Paul Pogba also doubtful.

“He's proven when he's been on the pitch, Astana and Rochdale, when you get him in the box he's dangerous," said the United boss.

"What's pleased me about him is he doesn't turn down chances to finish when you're not 18 yet and you keep trusting yourself.

"So I'm not worried about him at all but we've managed him, can't just throw him in the deep end all the time he's proved in those games he's ready for it, Premier League. I'll have the weekend to think about it."
