​Man Utd manager Solskjaer: We've got our form back

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes his team has rediscovered its form.

United began the season very poorly, losing two of their first four Premier League games.

But an impressive away win in the UEFA Champions League group stages against Paris Saint-Germain has put them back on track.

Speaking about the group stages and his team's form, Solskjaer told the club website: "We know that to get through you probably need 10 points and now we've got three, so next week's game against Leipzig will be very, very important for us.

"We looked at this game as a possibility, it's early on and we've all seen that the teams who played in Europe at the end of last season, it's taken a bit of time to get going. But we've certainly got our form back."

Asked if the win was a confidence boost, he replied: "Yes of course. It's all about what's in between the ears, football is.

"Yes, you've got talent, physicality and the technical bit but if your head is screwed on right and you're focused and concentrating on your job, then you get performances like this."
