Ole Gunnar Solkjaer has been given assurances by the Manchester United board that he'll be given more transfer windows to complete his overhaul of the first-team squad - and that he won't be judged heavily on results this season.
The Norwegian was brought in to replace José Mourinho last season and he was widely seen as a stop-gap for the club before another big name manager became available in the summer, but United eventually offered Solskjaer the full-time role after a string of good performances.
Mixed results towards the back end of the season saw Solskjaer's future once again thrown into question, but The Evening Standard claims that Manchester United's key decision-makers have told the manager that he remains in their long-term plans at Old Trafford.
