Saturday marked two years since Ole Gunnar Solskjær took over as director of one of the largest football clubs in the world. Only José Mourinho has had better statistics than those who have followed the era of Sir Alex Ferguson.
Here are all our tips on probabilities
The Norwegian has a winning percentage of 55.45. Mourinho had a 58.33 winning percentage in his two and a half years as manager at Old Trafford. Davis Moyes and Louis van Gaal had a fair number of worse numbers than Solskjær (52.94 and 52.43, respectively).
In an interview with MUTV on the occasion, Solskjær for once looked back and spoke about what happened during the 110 games that have passed since the coach’s debut on December 19, 2018.

– You have a match, and then a few days later, it’s the next match. If you do it right, you should always do better in the next game. That is why we are here. We are here to raise the bar and gradually we are getting better and better, says Solskjær in the interview.
Here you can play the lottery!
– I hope that the players “buy” my values. I know they do, because the ones that don’t won’t last long. I feel that now we have players with better character, with greater resistance and robustness.

Solskjær continues:
– We can not give up. It has happened to us so many times that we have had to come back, like in the Southampton game, it’s a fantastic way to win a game at the end. That is the attitude I look for in a player.
In that match, Manchester United were down 2-0, but ultimately won 3-2.

In the interview, Solskjær also answers what moments he remembers best from his time as a club manager. And the answer is not surprising:
– Probably the away game against Paris Saint-Germain. The way we fight, Marcus (Rashford) scoring a penalty at the last minute and then in the locker room with Sir Alex (Ferguson) and Eric (Cantona), is a moment I will always remember. But then we lost in the next round, so it doesn’t really mean anything. The best moment will be when we manage to lift a trophy.

Manchester Evening News commentator Samuel Luckhurst emphasizes in an “anniversary comment” that United is in danger of spending more than four years without fetching silverware for the award cup, and that the latter happened late in the year. 1980s. Luckhurst also writes that the club does not put the same pressure on Solskjær as it does on van Gaal and Mourinho to win titles. He considers that a title now “is more opportunistic than realistic.”
In the MUTV interview, Ole Gunnar Solskjær is also asked in which matches he received the most support from fans. He answers:
– The two victories against Manchester City, of course. My two sons were at the Etihad away game and they had a blast. Our fans were amazing, but then we also had a 2-0 goal for Scott (McTominay) in the last minute the last time we had fans at home. I think it was probably when I felt the most that the public enjoyed what we did.

Solskjær is also asked about his favorite goals as United manager. He mentions so many that it becomes too much to mention them all, but several of them are counterattacks. For example, against Arsenal in the Cup, when Jesse Lingard scored.
– That kind of counterattack is in our genes, and I must say that I love to see them, smiles Ole Gunnar Solskjær.

VG-tips: Manchester United-Leeds
* Manchester United came close to being ruined against Sheffield United on Thursday night, but they eventually clinched a 3-2 win. Five wins in the last six league games and having scored a minimum of three goals in four of them are good numbers to add to the frenzied Christmas program.
* Now it is the relatively disappointing local statistics that must be cleaned up so that the 1-2-3 final does not hold.
* Leeds is in full swing with Marcelo Bielsa, who is entertained by a neutral spectator to watch. But it’s not always that lucrative in terms of points for the Elland Road club.
* Leeds have enough in them to be able to surprise on Sunday. But it may also be that his wavering attacking style creates opportunities for the home team; we prefer the last assumption. The squad is intact since the great 5-2 win over Newcastle last. Cavani (a) is expected to assist for the hosts.
You must play before 17.25. Of course, you can watch the game on TV 2 Sport Premium.
