Paul Scholes highlighted Victor Lindelof's poor stoppage time defending as the key reason behind Manchester United's dropped points against Southampton.
United had surged into a 2-1 lead at Old Trafford following strikes from Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial, after Stuart Armstrong had volleyed Saints ahead. But after missing a string of chances to make it 3-1, United were breached in added time from a set piece as Michael Obafemi turned home despite being challenged by Lindelof.
Former United star Scholes said that Lindelof was "bullied" by the Southampton player and believes the Swedish centre-back may have cost his side two valuable points on this occasion.
"Lindelof I think has to be a stronger there," Scholes told Premier League Productions. "He has to be goal side. He allows himself to get a little bit bullied by the centre forward as he manages gets a foot in.
"I don’t think Lindelof really reads the danger there as he should do as a centre half."
United finished the game with 10 men after Luke Shaw and his replacement Brandon Williams were both withdrawn due to second-half injuries. Shaw rolled his ankle before Williams sustained a nasty gash to his head after a collision with Kyle Walker-Peters.
Solskjaer had only made four of his five permitted substitutes, but had used all three of United's permitted stoppages for substitutions.
United are level on points with fourth-placed Leicester after the Southampton draw and one point behind third-placed Chelsea.
Next up for Solskjaer's men is a trip to Crystal Palace on Thursday night. Palace are on a five-match losing streak.
