'We don't have time for anyone to sulk': Ole Gunnar Solskjaer urges dropped Man United stars like Paul Pogba and Jadon Sancho to 'help the team' from the bench with Red Devils boss happy with how 'most' of his players deal with his squad picks

Manchester United don’t have room for sulkers as they try to revive their season, says manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The United boss has been forced to leave out high-profile players like Paul Pogba and Jadon Sancho in recent games in an attempt to arrest his team’s early-season slump.

Solskjaer praised the attitude of ‘most’ of the players who have found themselves out of the team and urged them to take their opportunities when they arrive.

United switched to a 5-3-2 formation for Saturday’s win at Tottenham, which meant leaving out a number of forwards as Solskjaer opted to partner Edinson Cavani and Cristiano Ronaldo in attack.
