GOOD MORNING MAN UTD FANS

Solskjær: “[Laughs] Same again!”

Jesse Lingard wants to fight for his place at Man Utd, according to boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Lingard played for United in today’s pre-season win over Derby County.
Solskjaer said after the game: “Jesse has come back, he’s been bright and he wants to fight for his place.
“There’s nothing better than seeing players willing to fight for their place. Of course, what he did towards the end of the season, that is the true Jesse.
“That’s what we know he is capable of. I think we saw towards the end [of our own season] that we lacked maybe some options at times.”
