How Ole Gunnar plans to retain Manchester United job

Manchester United caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has revealed that restoring the club’s identity could earn him the job on a permanent basis when the season draws to a close.

Solskjaer has produced a resurgence at the club since replacing the sacked Jose Mourinho on a temporary basis back in December and has overseen four wins in his first four games in charge of  Manchester United.

The Red Devils have managed to cut the gap between them and fourth-placed Chelsea to six points from 11 points. Despite just being four games in, United seem to be slowly returning back to their glory days under Sir Alex Ferguson.

In a press conference ahead of the FA Cup tie against Reading, Solskjaer was asked what would enhance his chances of staying in Manchester beyond the season, “Get to summer and people are talking about the way Man United are playing. The style we’re playing, it reminds us of Sir Alex’s team. It reminds us of the successful times.

“And of course trophies. If you can get to the final of the FA Cup and get a trophy. Everyone knows how tough it is to lose a game. That was my last game, we lost a FA Cup final [against Chelsea in 2007]. That was tough last year. Let’s see in May if it’s a success or not.”
