Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits speaking with Jesse Lingard about his social media use.

Lingard failed to register a single goal or assist in the Premier League in 2019, with the attacking midfielder having lost his England place as a result of his dip in form.

The 27-year-old has come in for criticism for his over-zealous use of social media, which has come against the backdrop of his loss of form, with Solskjaer revealing he has had words with him.

“I don't think you see as much social media from Jesse as you used to," said Solskjaer.

“He's got his head down and is working hard to get back to the Jesse I knew.

“Jesse's had his ups and downs, as I've spoken about before, but against Manchester City and Tottenham, they were two games of examples of how important he can be for us in different games.

“We want him back scoring and making assists. No-one runs as much as Jesse, he's a great trigger in the pressing and a lively, bubbly character."

On the standards he expects from his players with their use of social media, Solskjaer: “It's part of being a Man United player, how you come across.

“It's important that you do give up yourself in a positive way and it's football-related.

“I do speak to players about how they portray themselves. I don't have these social media things, but it's a different generation."
