Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits it was hard looking at the Premier League table earlier this season – and has warned his players not to think they’ve cracked it now Manchester United can go top.
If United win their game in hand at Burnley on Tuesday night they will leapfrog old rivals Liverpool into first place ahead of their top-of-the-table clash at Anfield on Sunday.
That prospect looked unlikely earlier this season when United started the campaign later than most other clubs and then struggled to get out of the bottom half following home defeats to Crystal Palace, Tottenham and Arsenal.
