Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says he wants to 'unleash' Scott McTominay's finishing ability.

The defensive midfielder scored his seventh goal of the season to help United claim a 1-0 extra-time win over West Ham United in the FA Cup on Tuesday.

"Scott's a clinical striker of the ball. He used to play as a striker, we know that, and he finishes with authority," Solskjaer told MUTV.

"Like, 'bang', finish. No messing about. No safety. That's something we've got to learn from.

"For a defensive midfielder, we'll have to unleash him and release him forward because he's a goal threat in the box and he's got a good strike on him."
