Solskjaer admits Southampton represent major test for Man Utd | OneFootball

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says they face a major test against Southampton.

After a poor start to the season, United are looking for a fourth straight win in all competitions and a third in a row in the Premier League.

Solskajer takes his United side, currently ninth, to fifth-placed Southampton on Sunday,

“Of course we want that run to continue, but we know how well Southampton have done recently or lately, or at the last year or so," said Solskjaer.

“Still, we have a good away record and we are up there since the turn of January, when we had some ins and outs, transfers, I think that was a big turning point for us.

“Since then we've been pushing up the table and, depending on how many games you go back, I think we're getting that consistency.

“We know this is a nice challenge and a good test for the team now, to see if we've really learnt our lessons from the games we've played against them last season."
