Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hints at "change" after Leicester City defeat

Solskjaer hints at "change" after Leicester defeat

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has conceded that he will have to make some difficult decisions following Saturday's 4-2 defeat to Leicester City in the Premier League.

The Red Devils have now lost three of their last five matches in all competitions, recording just one win in the process, having suffered a disappointing loss at the King Power Stadium.

Solskjaer has admitted that the team are not currently in the best form, and the Norwegian has revealed that he will look at making changes to his team in a bid to overcome a difficult period.

"When you look at the game after, the four goals we conceded were poor. The way we played we don't deserve to continue that (away unbeaten) run," Solskjaer told reporters.

"I pick the team, Harry Maguire showed no reaction and I hold my hand up if that does not work out. If we concede four, I probably made a bad decision.

"Lately we have not been in great form, lost too many points and that is something we have to look at. We might have to change, do we need more legs in there? What do we need?

"Over the international break we have had a good look to see what has gone wrong lately but we need to look at the whole set up and balance of the team and maybe something has to give."

Man United are next in action against Atalanta BC in the Champions League on Wednesday before welcoming bitter rivals Liverpool to Old Trafford in the Premier League next weekend.
