Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has backed Alexis Sanchez to turn his Manchester United career around this season.

Expectations were nearly as big as the 30-year-old’s eye-watering wages after United hijacked Manchester City’s move for the Arsenal forward in January 2018.

But Sanchez has failed to get anywhere near the heights scaled at the Emirates Stadium, mustering just two goals in a miserable, injury-disrupted campaign.

“They were tough games and Wolverhampton are a hard team to break down, they defend deep, don’t give you a lot of spaces, and they can play, they can counter-attack, set pieces are always dangerous.

“So, we’ve been looking at the games we’ve had last season, see if there’s any tweaks or different things we need to do this time.

“But our form, our attitude and, yeah, the mood after the win is great from last season, so we go into the game confident.”
