Solskjaer praises Greenwood attitude over Man Utd benching

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has praised the attitude of Mason Greenwood.

Solskjaer admits it's been difficult keeping Greenwood out of his starting XI.

He said, "Every game is difficult because I've got players that I feel deserve game-time but that's the privilege I've got because I've got many good players. But it's also the downside for some of the players that are going to take a sidestep and wait for an opportunity.

"I think Mason's attitude lately shows what a person he is and player he is. He's never sulked when I've asked him to start of the bench. He's come on – against Roma and Tottenham - and scored in both games and showed great attitude for the team."
