(Reuters) - Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said he was delighted with his young trio of strikers in Thursday's 4-1 Premier League home win over Newcastle United, but needs to manage their workload as they develop.

Anthony Martial netted a brace while Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood scored before halftime as the hosts recovered from conceding an early goal to seal a comfortable win that lifted them to seventh with 28 points.
