Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants an answer from his players in today’s Premier League clash against Everton.
United were defeated by Arsenal and Istanbul Basaksehir, which has put pressure on the Norwegian as MEN Sport understands that the club has approached former Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino with a view to taking command at Old Trafford .
Everton have also suffered back-to-back defeats under Carlo Ancelotti following his spectacular start to the new campaign.
United have made four changes from the team that started against Istanbul Basaksehir in the middle of the week, with David de Gea replacing Dean Henderson in goal, and Victor Lindelof, Fred and Scott McTominay replacing Axel Tuanzebe, Nemanja Matic and Donny van de Beek. Mason Greenwood is not on the team of the day.
States XI: De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw; McTominay, Fred, Mata, Fernandes; Rashford, martial.
Subs: Henderson, Tuanzebe, James, Matic, Pogba, Van de Beek, Cavani

Gorgeous fred again
The credit Fred deserves has been absolutely incredible today, something that seemed unlikely given his recent demos. United’s best midfield balance comes when he’s playing, so it’s great to see him get back to his best level again.

Joined risk
Solskjaer is at risk of possible embarrassment here, Williams and Telles were on the provisional squad but neither of the left backs are on the bench, so Tuanzebe wo has replaced Shaw.

Daniel James warming up
It will be interesting to see how Ole Gunnar Solskjaer approaches his replacements today and is often cited as a criticism of his tenure.
The manager was perfect with his focus on the two Champions League wins this season and he knows that a smart change today could be crucial to winning the match.
By the way, Daniel James is now warming up by himself.

The united response has been exactly what was required
So far so good.
United did not start well, but the most important thing is that they responded well.
It has been the best and worst of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer again with repetitive defensive errors eradicated by the brilliance of Bruno Fernandes and another near-perfect team selection.

Bad news for United as Fernandes is injured.

United will hope to continue.
He’s back on his feet and ready to go; It remains to be seen if they will take him out at halftime.

Everton United’s weakness should expose
United needs to move on at Coleman. He looks so sober that he doesn’t think he’s still a starter as Everton’s main right-back. He looks more like Tony Hibbert these days and Rodriguez doesn’t protect him.
If United go ahead two goals here, they should come to victory, unpredictable as this season has been. They have the wind in their sails and Everton seem dumbfounded that United did not collapse after the first game.

United’s performance will delight Solskjaer
Regardless of today’s result, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will point to this performance as proof of his credentials at Old Trafford.
United have been excellent in the first half, although that has been backed up by another serious defensive error.
It sums up Solskjaer’s reign that while there are some positives, the same problems continue to occur.
