Solskjaer explains Lingard absence against Blades
Lingard will be hopeful of gaining his first post-lockdown minutes in East Anglia, having started the Reds’ last two games in the FA Cup, against Tranmere Rovers and Derby County.
The Warrington-born Academy graduate has made 35 appearances so far this season, and was a big part of Premier League successes against Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City in December.
Solskjaer admitted there were likely to be changes to the starting line-up for the match at Norwich, given the number of matches scheduled over the next couple of months, and Lingard is one of several in contention for a starting berth.
