Manchester’s United’s transformed attack once again combined \ndevastatingly to give caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer his third \nsuccessive win with an impressive victory over Bournemouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A first half of cavalier attacking football saw United score three \ntimes, with Paul Pogba netting his second double in successive games and\n Marcus Rashford grabbing the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are now only three points behind fifth-placed Arsenal, having \ntrailed by eight following the morale-sapping 3-1 defeat at Liverpool \nearlier this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pogba poked in his first after Rashford had mesmerised both Nathan \nAke and Diego Rico on the right, before the French World Cup winner \nheaded in from Ander Herrera’s precise delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was 3-0 when Anthony Martial, back in the XI after recovering from\n a bug, provided a wonderful cross for Rashford to slide his shot past \nAsmir Begovic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bournemouth, who had looked dangerous on set-pieces, pulled a goal \nback in first-half stoppage time when Ake headed in following good work \nby David Brooks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Substitute Romelu Lukaku scored United’s fourth from Pogba’s pass two\n minutes after coming on, while defender Eric Bailly was shown a \nstraight red card for scything down Cherries midfielder Ryan Fraser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

United have now found the net 12 times in the three matches since Solskjaer took over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This victory means the 45-year-old has emulated Sir Matt Busby and \nJose Mourinho by winning his first three league games in charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solskjaer will be looking to make it a fourth at Newcastle on Wednesday<\/p>\n\n\n\n
