Ole Gunnar Solskjaer suggests Manchester United's objectives have changed after Ed Woodward chat

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has suggested that Manchester United's intentions have changed as a result of their brilliant form. At the start of the season, Solskjaer reportedly told Red Devils executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward that his Manchester United side would not be capable of challenging Manchester City and Liverpool for the title. On Tuesday night Manchester United beat Brighton 3-0 at the Amex Stadium. And January signing Bruno Fernandes was once again a standout performer in Solskjaer's side, and netted twice as United blew their opposition away in both halves. After the match Solskjaer hailed the performance, adding his United side are finally ready to start competing with the big boys once again now that the "culture" at the club has changed. "The team is improving," he said. "We're in with a shout for the Champions League next year and we still have the FA Cup and Europa League to play. The team is improving, the players are coming back and the style is better." Mason Greenwood was one of United's best players against Brighton, and the Red Devils boss was also full of praise for the forward. "He's getting better," he said. "You can see clearly that he's maturing and improving, he's only 18 still so we will see more from him. I've said it throughout the year that, as long as we can get him faced up in and around the box, he'll create chances for us. "But in this game his hold-up play and his link-up play and general movement was fantastic as well. He's a special talent, a special kid that we are going to look after, try to develop into a top, top player. He's doing well now, but he is still young and has things to learn. He knows that but we have a special talent there we have to nurture." Source: The Mirror
