Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer reserved special praise for his full backs after the 9-0 thrashing of Southampton at Old Trafford.

United played most of the game against ten men after an early Saints red card, and eventually faced nine as the away side received another straight red.

But Solskjaer was pleased at how his side created chances throughout the game, especially in the first period.

He spoke about the entire team in a positive light, but had special praise for Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Luke Shaw.

He told reporters post-game: "Brilliant. Aaron [Wan-Bissaka] kept going in there at the back post and Luke [Shaw] kept putting crosses in, which we've asked him to do.

"I thought they did well. It's always hard when they [sit] just outside the box. It was about getting quality and width and we did."
