Solskjaer reveals exactly what Man Utd board told him to do when he took interim job

The Norwegian has made a fine start to life in charge at Old Trafford but will he be given the role on a permanent basis in the summer?

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has revealed the Manchester United board gave him the mandate to "play a certain way, get the mood back and get results" when he was given the job as interim manager.

The Norwegian took charge until the end of the season when he replaced the sacked Jose Mourinho in December, with United having won nine of the first 10 games they have played under Solskjaer.

The likes of Paul Pogba, Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial have all returned to form after struggling earlier in the season, with the 45-year-old now having been tipped by many to take the job on a permanent basis.
