Anthony Martial skewers Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as he rips into ex Manchester United boss

Anthony Martial has sensationally revealed that he was forced to play whilst injured under Ole Gunnar Solskjær as he hit out at his treatment under two former Manchester United manager's.

Solskjær tells me that he needs me, so I play.

"Given my game, if I can't accelerate, it becomes very complicated and I get criticised. The coach never bothered to tell the media. Obviously, I end up getting injured for good and when I come back, finished, I don't play anymore. I took it very badly.

He also reckons Mourinho showed a lack of co-operation which ultimately cost the
