'It's not like Football Manager!' - Solskjaer reflects on 'rollercoaster' start to life as Man Utd boss

The Norwegian manager was brought on full-time after a brilliant spell as caretaker, but results have dropped off since he signed a permanent contract

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has said that his spell at the helm at Old Trafford has been a rollercoaster.

Solskjaer was initially hired on an interim basis to replace sacked Jose Mourinho but was made permanent head coach after a barnstorming start.

United won 14 of the Norwegians first 17 games in charge and overturned a 2-0 deficit to PSG in the Champions League round of 16, winning 3-1 away in Paris to advance.
