Latest Manchester United training pictures show play Football Tennis on hottest day of the year

Manchester United were hard at work on the hottest day of the year as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's players were put through their paces at Carrington.

The UK experienced is experiencing a heatwave this week, but United - and Anthony Martial in particular - were ice-cold against Sheffield United last night.

Martial hit a hat-trick as United brushed aside the Blades 3-0 in the Old Trafford sunshine, while Solskjaer's squad got back to work at their Carrington training complex today as the temperature soared above 30 degrees.

United players understandably looked in high spirits and engaged in some football tennis to enjoy the sun, and Solskjaer says there is more to come from his squad despite a resounding victory on Wednesday.

"At times it was very, very good football," the United boss said. "We could and should have scored more goals to put the game to bed before half-time.

"Always worrying going into half-time knowing you should have scored goals the way we controlled the game, pressed and stopped them playing. Very happy with it.

"Still more to come and we shouldn't be 100 per cent happy with it."
