Former Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov says that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will find it difficult to keep all of his attackers happy this term.

Former Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov believes that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will find it difficult to keep all of his attackers happy during the 2021-22 campaign.

Cristiano Ronaldo's return to Old Trafford has further boosted an already strong attacking department, with the likes of Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford, Mason Greenwood, Anthony Martial, Edinson Cavani and Jesse Lingard all competing for spots in the final third.

Berbatov has claimed that it will be "near impossible" for Solskjaer to juggle his options, as some players will be unhappy with their lack of action this term.

"This is a problem; a luxury problem," Berbatov told Goal. "When you have Sancho, Rashford, Greenwood, Martial, Cavani and Ronaldo, how do you keep everyone happy here?

"It is possible, but it's also near impossible because you're always going to have someone who is not happy with his playing time, and this is the job of the manager now: how to manage all these connections, playing time and keep everyone happy."

Ronaldo is expected to make his second debut for the 20-time English champions in Saturday afternoon's Premier League clash with Newcastle United at Old Trafford.
