Manchester United had one of the best midfielders of the world in their ranks and yet the Frenchman seldom sparkled for his club.

It was because Pogba got minimal support from his manager, who had burdened him with defensive responsibility and a rigid shape.

With Solskjaer's arrival, the Frenchman became the center of the team and has been enjoying a far more flexible work routine. Pogba has the freedom to assert his influence on the game and it has already worked splendidly for United.

But it has not just been Pogba who has had a role reversal. Rashford and Martial no longer track back every ball and are allowed to concentrate on what they do best - torment the defense.

As a result, Martial has been far more effective so far and has made that left side his own. However, the pick of the lot has been young Marcus Rashford.

The Englishman has now scored five goals and registered one assist in the last six games in the Premier League.

He has scored four goals in as many matches and has been a revelation so far. Rashford's finishing has massively improved, as has his confidence and all of this has been because he has been given a license to thrill by his manager.

Solskjaer's decision to free up his forward players has directly resulted in United winning all seven games under him.
