His winner ensured that United finished their pre-season campaign undefeated. Paul Pogba wasn’t present for the game against Milan as he had a slight knock but Solskjaer added that he fully believes the midfielder wants to be at United, amid heavy interest from Real Madrid. The transfer window will have closed before United get their season underway, and Solskjaer will doubtless be happy to focus entirely on matters on the pitch.Fixtures with Wolves, Crystal Palace, Southampton and Leicester follow the Chelsea game, before their Europa League campaign gets underway in mid-September.</blockquote>
