Solskjaer decides on permanent penalty taker?

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has reportedly settled on a permanent penalty taker, following Paul Pogba's miss against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Monday night.

Despite Marcus Rashford having scored from the spot against Chelsea nine days earlier, Pogba took over responsibility at Molineux, seeing his effort saved by goalkeeper Rui Patricio.

Solskjaer defended having made two players available to step up from 12 yards after Rashford and Pogba were criticised for their on-field decision.

However, according to The Sun, Solskjaer has changed his mind, with Rashford now taking on the role ahead of the World Cup winner.

While the Norwegian publicly supported his two players, it is claimed that he voiced his frustration in the dressing room after the match in the West Midlands.
