Juan Mata has called on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to put more trust in Manchester United winger Daniel James.

The 21-year-old scored a stunning goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw with Southampton.

Speaking to MUTV the 31-year-old said: "(It was a) very good goal, a fantastic finish.

"He's a very hard-working player.

"He gave us a lot on the wing and even in the second half when everyone was a bit tired, he was still sprinting and giving very dangerous crosses.

"(I'm) very happy for him and hopefully he can do it many more times.

"Football is easier right, if you are that quick? He takes advantage of that.

"He goes one against one and it's very difficult for a defender to take the ball off him. We need to use him even more."
