Man Utd boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer explains why Wales star Daniel James will continue goalscoring streak

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes Daniel James' attributes mean he will continue to score goals for Manchester United.

The 21-year-old has started the 2019/20 season in stunning fashion, scoring three times in four matches for the Red Devils as well as netting the winner for Wales against Belarus on Monday night.

James returned to Manchester this week having played twice for Ryan Giggs' side during the international break.

And Solskjaer reckons James will continue to bulge the net as he has the "X factor" in and around the 18-yard box.

"He's got that X factor with his pace in and around the box so he'll always create chances," said Solskjaer.

"He's been practising left foot, right foot, crossing and finishing, so he'll score more goals, too."

James - who won United's Player of the Month award for August - will hope to continue his hot streak in front of goal when Solskjaer's men host Leicester City at Old Trafford on Saturday.
