Solskjær new manager for Man U. That's just insane!! Being a Norwegian and having the pleasure of playing with and against him, I am so proud of him! It's a great opportunity for him as a manager. This shows everything is possible with hard work! I wish him all the best:top::soccer:

Solskjaer is one of the most decent human beings I've met in football.

He's also, quietly, one of the most determined and mentally tough.
He understands exactly what United should be, on and off the pitch.
Cardiff was a mistake; he didn't do well.
But as interim v good choice
