Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has carried out his threat to field a weakened team tonight against Leicester.

It’s his furious response to the Premier League’s scheduling of Manchester United’s three games and he has warned he could field a completely different side in one of the fixtures.

Rule L19, which requires all clubs to field a full-strength team in every league match to ensure fairness to all clubs.

His wholesale change tonight could give Leicester  an advantage over West Ham in securing a fourth place for the final  Champions League spot.

It remains to be seen if West Ham or David Moyes could challenge the Premier League to take action if the Foxes win but as it appears to be against the spirit of the game and certainly brings further scrutiny on one of the big six greedy clubs.
