Solskjaer's reserves a mixed bag as important transfer decisions loom for Man United

At the start of a season that will be busier than any he has known before, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer got an early look at what he has in reserve in a 3-0 win vs. Luton Town in the Carabao Cup.

If defeat to Crystal Palace on Saturday highlighted the shortcomings of his first XI, the trip to Luton Town provided the Norwegian with a glimpse at his supporting cast. Manchester United did enough to win and book a place in the fourth round of the tournament thanks to a Juan Mata penalty and a late double from substitutes Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood, but it was job done rather than anything spectacular.
