MANCHESTER UNITED TRAIN AHEAD OF ATALANTA TRIP IN CHAMPIONS LEAGUE 

Manchester United visit Bergamo to take on Atalanta in the Champions League on Tuesday night. 

Joined persevered through a troublesome October and their 5-0 loss against Liverpool put Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's future at the club in question. In any case, Solskjaer endure that catastrophe and United reacted to that embarrassment with a 3-0 success away at Tottenham. 

It was unavoidable that Solskjaer expected to make changes after the Liverpool misfortune and the United supervisor changed to the 3-5-2 arrangement against Spurs in London - that approach had recently been held for just the best resistance during Solskjaer's residency. 

Solskjaer basically needs results and the choice to switch framework promptly delivered profits in the capital with player of the month Cristiano Ronaldo again getting on the scoresheet. 

Joined have traveled to Italy to proceed with their Champions League crusade when playing Atalanta at the Gewiss Stadium.

Solskjaer is in a relaxed mood pitchside, clasping hands with Des Kelly and having a quick chat with Michael Laudrup. It was perhaps not a coincidence his pre-match briefing was so anodyne when it was timed with the flight that almost every Manchester correspondent was on to Bergamo. Bar last season’s trips in crowdless stadia, it was the earliest United had conducted a pre-match Champions League press conference in four years. It is unlikely to be a coincidence.

It is no surprise whatsoever that Amad has not even made the bench. Bringing him over in January has been of little benefit to the winger and it was a pity his loan move to Feyenoord was scuppered by injury. At £37m, he was hardly an inexpensive investment but United still have time on their side with the 19-year-old.
