MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer praised winger Daniel James and said he was confident a winning run would give his players the energy to get through a tough schedule after a 3-1 Premier League win over Newcastle United on Sunday.

United followed up Thursday's 4-0 Europa League win over Real Sociedad with a patchy performance against Newcastle, their goals coming from individual quality amid some shaky defending.
