Pogba likely to feature United squard
Manchester United have a couple of players to assess before Tuesday’s Champions League game at Atalanta,
says boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
The United boss did not identify the players but did not appear too concerned about their chances.
“We were looking all right in the training session this morning. Everyone was on there,” said Solskjaer.
“There were a couple of little twinges in the session but I don’t think they will be major.”
Having lost 5-0 at home to Liverpool, United switched to a three-man defence for the 3-0 win at Tottenham,
with Cristiano Ronaldo and Edinson Cavani leading the attack.
The win left United fifth in the Premier League, 10 games into what has been an inconsistent campaign.
Solskjaer would not be drawn on whether they would continue with the same tactical setup for Tuesday’s game in Italy.
“I cannot give you the gameplan and the tactics of course, but we have a squad to play many different ways,” he said.
“You can put any tactics out or system out, it’s the players within it and how they execute the role – that was the difference on Saturday.
“The quality of what we did was more important than the system we played.”
Atalanta head coach Gian Piero Gasperini has backed Solskjaer to emerge from his recent difficulties and take Manchester United back to the top.
Cristiano Ronaldo secured a memorable 3-2 comeback victory when the sides met for the first time a fortnight ago in Group F.
they want to win the game again.
