OLE’S ROTATION
As expected, with the Wednesday’s Europa League final in mind, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer opted for a much-changed side on the final day of the Premier League season.
From the team that faced Fulham at Old Trafford on Tuesday, only Eric Bailly remained from the starting XI, meaning our manager opted for 10 changes at Molineux. Nemanja Matic led the side as captain in Harry Maguire’s absence and, up front, he opted for Daniel James, Amad and Anthony Elanga, a move which payed off…
ELANGA SHOWS PROMISE
Wow, Anthony! What a header to score your first United goal! The Academy graduate silenced the Molineux crowd and showed exactly why Ole has trusted him in our final games of the season with a bullet header, following a move consisting of 14 passes.
Our no. 56 became the 19th teenager to score in the Premier League for the Reds, a record only bettered by Arsenal on 20. The youngster became the fifth Swede to score for the club after Jesper Blomquist, Henrik Larsson, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Victor Lindelof.
