Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says rotation was the reason for Paul Pogba’s benching in the loss to Istanbul Basaksehir on Wednesday.
The Frenchman was brought on in the second-half but was unable to turn around the 2-1 scoreline.
“It’s just man or game management [having Paul Pogba on the bench]. We’ve got loads of games, and we’ve just rotated a few names,” Solskjaer told BT Sport.
“We want to go and win the game. We’ve had a great start in the group, and if we can go and win tonight that’s a good response from the disappointment at the weekend.”
