The France international was once again disappointing on Tuesday as United slumped to a 2-1 Premier League defeat to Wolves.
Scott McTominay's first goal for the club put United in front at Molineux, but Diogo Jota levelled and United captain Ashley Young was sent off after being booked twice for fouls on the Wolves forward.
United had appeared in control despite Wolves having a man advantage and did not concede a single effort on David de Gea's goal until a Joao Moutinho cross was turned into his own net by Chris Smalling.
After scoring nine goals in Solskjaer's first 12 games in charge, Pogba has now failed to find the net in his last seven games for the Red Devils in all competitions.
When asked if he was concerned by Pogba's struggles in front of goal, Solskjaer told a news conference: "He could easily have had an assist after some great play with Romelu [Lukaku]. That's just numbers and figures.
"Paul is working as hard as any player in the team – some days it just doesn't come off."
Solskjaer did have praise for McTominay, whose maiden goal for the club came in his 41st appearance.
The Scotland international has not always been a favourite of United supporters in his fledgling career but Solskjaer thinks he has what it takes to carve out a long career at Old Trafford.
