Man Utd: Solskjaer praises side after 2-0 win over Crystal Palace
Manchester United's challenge for the Premier League title next season will depend on their front three, according to Arsenal legend Ian Wright. United are currently on an unbeaten run of 19 matches in all competitions under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. That run is largely down to the goals scored by Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood.
The trio have scored 60 goals between them in all competitions this season, 44 of those in the Premier League.
Solskjaer's side are still set to finish over 30 points behind champions and bitter rivals Liverpool.
However, Wright says the form of Rashford, Martial and Greenwood has been hugely exciting for United and believes they can help the club towards their first title since 2013 if they can keep it up.
"When [Romelu] Lukaku went everybody's going crazy about the fact 'they haven't replaced, they haven't replaced, what are they going to do? Martial won't score that many goals, Rashford won't score that many goals', they didn't see Greenwood coming in," Wright told Premier League Productions.
"But now we're seeing this new three here, can they continue with that consistency?
"Because if they do, they will be challenging City and Liverpool, with what they've got backed up, obviously they're going to need some defensive cover and players.

"These are still developing these kids, still developing and it's fantastic times for Manchester United.
"I don't think they're close to challenging unless they make some signings.
"They need to find the right signings, at the moment very encouraging signs for United but could miss out on the Champions League still and if they do it would be a disappointing season."
