Ole Gunnar Solskjaer confirms Sir Alex Ferguson visit to Carrington, reveals influence he is having on Manchester United reign
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has spoken of the influence Sir Alex Ferguson is having on his Manchester United reign.Legendary former United boss Fergie played a key role in the appointment of Solskjaer as the club’s interim manager after the sacking of Jose Mourinho.4

Sir Alex Ferguson has been a regular visitor to Man United games since recovering from brain surgery

And the 77-year-old was a special guest at United’s training ground on Saturday, offering his support and encouragement to the players and new staff, which includes his former number two Mike Phelan.He paid us a visit, said Solskjr, ahead of Wednesday nights trip to Newcastle United.Sir Alex Ferguson enjoyed his time at the training ground, we had a few nice chats and he encouraged us.“He knows the staff Ive got are Manchester United through and through. He knows were going to do whatever we can, up to the last second were here, forManchester United, as best we can.4

Sir Alex Ferguson signed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer for Manchester United in 1996

Solskjaer is putting the lessons learned under the Scot to good use, having overseen three straight wins and a 12-goal haul since taking over as caretaker manager.Unlike his predecessor, he actually looks like he is enjoying the job at hand and is ready for a tough test yet at Newcastle.“I want Man United to look like this when I’m here,” he said, reflecting on the 4-1 win over Bournemouth on Sunday.“Of course, we’ll get tougher tests than this, for example on Wednesday against Newcastle.“It’s a different ball game because you’re away. I never enjoyed going up there. There was one game where we really enjoyed ourselves, the 6-2 win, but that was more or less it.“It’s going to be a tough one. We need to keep clean sheets. We’ve not done that so far. There’s loads we need to work on, but this is the way we want to see ourselves attacking.”4

Solskjaer delights in Man United’s win over Bournemouth

It is a case of so far so good for a man whose only previous managerial job in the Premier League came as Cardiff were relegated in 2014.Asked if he is comfortable at this level, Solskjaer said: “I don’t know about ‘at home at this level’ but I’m at home at this club. That’s the thing.“I’ve spent 15 years here and that’s just me. I’m just seeing all these people when you walk through the corridors here. It’s me. I am comfortable in the environment.“It’s up to you to rate me if I’m up to the level but I’m definitely enjoying my time back home.”Alexis Sanchez is in line to return for United at St James’ Park, having not featured since November.“He’s had some great training sessions the last few days, he wanted to be here today, but we have to manage him,” Solskjaer said of last January’s big-name signing.“He’s been out for a month. But he’ll be involved, yes. He wants to play all the time, he’s one of those characters.4

Alexis Sanchez has struggled to make an impact at Old Trafford since arriving from Arsenal

“He put himself available, but it was a few days too early for him. He’s not had enough fitness or whatever, but he’s champing at the bit.“I think he’s a player that would benefit from the interchanging, the rotation, the movement.“Of course, the more chances you create, the more times you get the ball into the final third, he’ll be an asset for us – on the floor, in between or in behind.“I think he’s looking forward to it – it certainly looked like it (on Saturday) in the session because he scored quite a few nice goals so that was encouraging.”
