Manchester United's poor start to the new season has left boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer frustrated, particularly with the goal-scoring form of Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial.

As of four matches into the season, the duo has scored just four of the team's seven goals, despite creating the third-highest number of chances in the Premier League.

According to reports, Solskjaer is growing increasingly unhappy with the forwards' inability to deliver the spark he has been hoping for upfront.

With the team currently sitting eighth on the standings with five points, seven behind leaders Liverpool, Solskjaer feels he needs more from his attacking pair.

"We had loads of chances, created loads of openings but the last bit is just missing," Solskjaer was quoted saying after United's frustrating 1-1 draw against Southampton.

Manchester United's woeful start to the new season has seen them drop to eighth on the log, with the club's fans eagerly awaiting a turnaround in fortunes.
