Manchester United fans react as Solskjaer names line up vs Bournemouth

Manchester United fans are delighted Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has named an unchanged starting XI to take on Bournemouth.

United are hoping to extend their unbeaten streak to 16 games and they could have a chance of moving in to the top four for the first time since September if they beat the relegation strugglers and Leicester lose against Crystal Palace.

United have been fantastic since the Premier League resumed following a hiatus of over three months, with Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford's returns from injury meaning they've finally been able to link up with Bruno Fernandes.

Solskjaer said in his pre-match conference that he might be forced to change his side due to fitness issues but has been able to stick with the team that cruised to an impressive 3-0 victory over Brighton last time out.

It's the first time United have named an unchanged side for three successive matches since 2006 under Sir Alex Ferguson.

United fans are thrilled to see the team remain the same and are confident of another victory against a side who hasn't won in seven matches.

Manchester United starting XI: De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw; Fernandes, Matic, Pogba; Greenwood, Martial, Rashford.

Substitutes: Romero, Bailly, Williams, Mata, Pereria, James, Fred, McTominay, Ighalo.
