West Ham were better than Man United, Solskjaer concedes

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer acknowledged luck was on his team's side as they edged past West Ham 2-1 at Old Trafford.

Solskjaer rung the changes from the 1-0 midweek defeat to Barcelona in the Champions League and United turned in a disjointed performance, as Paul Pogba struck twice from the penalty spot either side of Felipe Anderson's 49th-minute equaliser.

However, Solskjaer was keen to point out that on other occasions during a recent fallow run of form, United had not been so fortunate.
