Ole hopes 'old-fashioned no.9s' will return

In a fascinating Q&A with supporters that has been published this weekend – part one on Saturday and part two today – the boss speaks fondly about 'old-fashioned no.9s' who can provide a strong focal point up front, like he often did as a centre-forward in his goal-laden career.

Solskjaer has assembled an excellent group of strikers this season, of course, in Edinson Cavani, Mason Greenwood, Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford, who all wield different strengths and qualities. The competition for places between them is something that has really benefitted the group this campaign, to Ole's delight.
