Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants to go back to Manchester United’s glory days when the players helped run the dressing room with what he describes as “inner justice.”
Although Sir Alex Ferguson was firmly in charge during the most successful period in the club’s history, Solskjaer saw strong personalities such as Roy Keane, Gary Neville and Peter Schmeichel inspire each other by delivering strong truths at home.
It’s a common complaint that there aren’t enough leaders in the modern game, but Solskjaer sees hope with the impact of Bruno Fernandes at Old Trafford.

As he himself admits, the Portuguese midfielder likes to give instructions to his teammates and has been given the captain’s armband when Harry Maguire is out of the lineup.
Fernandes has also scored five goals in his last three games and will be United’s point man at Southampton today, notably with Paul Pogba and Scott McTominay expected to miss.
Solskjaer doesn’t mind heated exchanges between teammates, with United desperate to get close to the top four after a rocky start to the season.
“In the heat of the moment, people can vent their frustration and get angry that it is only for the benefit of the team,” said the coach.
But then it was over and over. If it persists, it is a different scenario.
“I’ve been on a team and I like a team that has that inner justice where it’s not just the managers and the coaches who scream.
“I want the players to take responsibility and put other players in their place when necessary.
“They are out there fighting for a cause and that is for the team to win. Every now and then you just have to give yourself a laugh when you deserve it.

Bruno is not just pitching, he’s also training the players. We can all learn from their mindset and way of thinking. If it’s 4-0, he wants 5-0. He always wants the team to improve. ‘
United have won three in a row, and Solskjaer attributed their first problems to a lack of preseason due to the Europa League final in August.
Although they have ranged from beating PSG on the road to losing 6-1 at home to Spurs, Solskjaer believes their players have been consistent across the board through 2020. “The teams that win the league make good runs,” he said. “If you look at the last 40 games, we win two, we draw one, we win two, we lose one.

‘Look at the stats since Bruno came in after Burnley’s game (in January). Only Liverpool have added more points, so we are coming.
“We did not start the league on par with everyone else for Europe and a preseason that we did not have. Now we are showing what we are capable of.
The United manager has one year left on his contract at the end of the season and is eager to stay longer and finish the work he has started: ‘We live in a results business and all I want is for Man United to improve as a team. and as a club. ‘
