Solskjaer explains our starting XI for the derby
TranscriptWatch our interview with the boss, as he discusses Fred and Paul Pogba returning to the team...
A couple of changes from midweek – can you tell us your thinking? “We want to play well – of course they’ve had good performances, both Paul and Fred are in good form and so we wanted to get them on the pitch today. We need energy and we need quality because we’re playing a good team. Paul Pogba got his injury but has been playing well since his return… “Of course, he got his injury after the international break and he missed out a few games there but he played and did his highest total of physical output against West Ham. So he’s getting back to shape and he is fitter and fitter now, so should be ready to go again.” Mason and Marcus know exactly what this fixture means… “I think every single one of them, many players have been through this game before. The Manchester derby is massive, no matter where you come from. Those two kids have played derby games since they were kids, Scotty as well of course, so hopefully we find our best level because we have to.”
