Mason Greenwood repays faith shown by manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

In the days gone by, it would have been a routine 4-0 victory against AZ Alkmaar on Thursday for Manchester United. Although United are far away from restoring that norm and fear factor back at Old Trafford, they do now possess the attacking prowess as they did in the years gone by. Mason Greenwood, the youngest of the lot, might just be the most lethal.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has previously lauded Greenwood as the best finisher at the club, ahead of Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford. And why wouldn’t he? Greenwood boasted a record of 44 goals and 12 assists in 47 appearances for the Manchester United U18’s, U19’s and U23’s.
