Solskjaer urges Man Utd players to be more ruthless

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has urged his Manchester United players to be more ruthless and decisive.

The Red Devils had to wait until extra-time to secure a winning goal against West Ham United in their FA Cup fifth-round clash on Tuesday.

Victor Lindelof and Marcus Rashford both had good chances to put United ahead in normal time, and Solskjaer wants his side to be more clinical.

“I think we got about 15 to 17 shots in the end but we need to be more clinical,” Solskjaer said.

“We should’ve finished the game off earlier and finished in 90 minutes but sometimes it doesn’t happen.

“Especially in the second half, I thought we struggled. In the first half, we have two or three big moments. Mason [Greenwood] had one when Anthony [Martial] laid it off, Victor Lindelof’s header that deflected, well saved by the keeper. Alex [Telles] put a ball in for Donny [van de Beek] who couldn’t get a clean strike.

“So, first half, I think we dominated and controlled. The second half, not so happy with that one. After we scored, we should have scored two or three more, we’re too wasteful and we should have controlled the game more.”
