Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits set piece coach Eric Ramsay is already earning his salary.

The Red Devils conceded 18 from set pieces last term, and were not much of an attacking threat from dead balls either.

Despite drawing 1-1 with Southampton in their second league game, Solskjaer saw positives, as United created a lot of clear-cut chances from set pieces.

"Eric Ramsay has come in, he's working really well with the boys," Solskjaer told reporters, per the Manchester Evening News.

"The first two or three (set-pieces), we could or should have had two or three goals on set-plays, which is pleasing but also disappointing we couldn't get the ball over the line.

"Nemanja [Matic], Paul [Pogba], Anthony [Martial], chances for Victor [Lindelof] and Harry [Maguire], we'll keep on working and hopefully we'll be efficient in the end, scoring goals and stop conceding. We had a big chance where we could have lost the game so we need to tighten up there as well."
