UNITED UP FRONT Solskjaer says Martial and Rashford won’t get selfish in fight to be top scorer

Solskjaer said: “You support your team-mates all of the time – and I know more than anyone how important that attitude is.

“Ruud van Nistelrooy was very focused on his goals, but he was a team player.

“He would come off after a 4-0 win being miserable if he hadn’t scored.

“You always want that in a team. But you never saw

Ruud take on a shot when he should have passed.”

Solskjaer is busy building a formidable goalscoring force of his own.

Teenage tyro Mason Greenwood has scored 18 times during his breakthrough season. And midfielder Bruno Fernandes is already in double figures following his £46.5million arrival from Sporting Lisbon in January.

Solskjaer added: “DecisionRonaldo. making is going to become a big, big thing for those lads as we move forward, because we are always going to create overloads, two-against-ones and big chances.

“Finishers, goalscorers also have to think, ‘Is there is a better chance that we will score here if I pass it?’.

“I was the same. Sometimes you look at a video and you wonder why you didn’t pass it.

“But the reason I didn’t pass was because I genuinely thought we had a better chance of scoring if I took the shot. That’s what I want with Anthony, Marcus, Mason and Bruno.”

United face Copenhagen in Cologne tomorrow night, with Wolves or Sevilla awaiting them in the semi-finals.

Solskjaer believes his team can really attack the Europa tournament after booking their return to the Champions League with a third-place finish in the Premier League.

He added: “That was a weight off the boys’ shoulders, finishing in the top four.

“It means we can go into this tournament with more freedom, knowing what next season will bring anyway.

“But we go knowing we have to work hard to win, 100 per cent – because as soon as you drop those percentages, you are bang-average.”
