5 tactics Ole Gunnar Solskjaer can adopt in absence of Martial and Lingard

#3 Pushing Pogba forward

Manchester United v Paris Saint-Germain - UEFA Champions League Round of 16: First Leg

There is no denying that Paul Pogba will be a huge miss in the return leg of the Champions League round of 16 tie at Paris. The Frenchman received his marching orders after picking up his second yellow of the night and is suspended for the game in early March. He is the heartbeat of this team and as such, in midst of an injury crisis, Solskjaer could ask his talisman to shoulder added responsibilities.

With no Martial or Lingard in the team, Paul Pogba could be pushed forward by his manager, to play either in the No. 10 role with Lukaku and Rashford ahead of him, or as a wide striker on either side of Rashford. Ideally, the Frenchman has the abilities to carry out both roles with ease, but without him in the middle, Manchester United will need another creative outlet.

Juan Mata or Andreas Pereira both have the creative eye to pick a pass, and if Pogba does move forward, Solskjaer could opt for one of those two to carry out the Pogba role. The Norwegian could also go for McTominay or Fred to play alongside Matic and give Herrera a little more creative license. However, it would be a huge risk against both Chelsea and Liverpool's speed of play.
