Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer reveals secret to make stars happy
Manchester United welcome Arsenal to Old Trafford for a Premier League clash this evening and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has made a revelation of his squad.
Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has revealed the secret to keeping all his stars happy – even when they are sitting on the bench.
Donny van de Beek’s lack of starts has drawn the headlines since his £40million move from Ajax and United’s Norwegian boss explained he learnt about man management from Old Trafford legend Sir Alex Ferguson during his time as a player.
Solskjaer told the club’s website: “Well of course I’ve probably been on the end of that more than anyone about being on the bench! [Smiles] Of course the gaffer was fantastic when you sat down for the one-to-one chats with him.
“I remember many of them. Some reasons and excuses I didn’t particularly agree with but he was fantastic at making you feel involved and that’s the part with us too; everyone is going to be important, be it from the first minute, the last minute, this game, the next game.
“We’ve got a week now, well six days, Sunday, Wednesday, Saturday with three massive games before the international break and everyone knows that they’ll be called upon.”
United appear to have a peaceful camp ahead of their game against Arteta’s side as Bruno Fernandes reveals the good relationship he shares with his Manchester United team-mate, on and off the pitch.
“We have a good relationship, of course. “We both speak Italian so most of the time we speak Italian. I have a good relationship with him on and off the pitch.
“He’s a funny guy, he always wants to joke. “I know him from Italy already but now I have the chance to be in a team with a World Cup winner.
“It’s always a pleasure being in a team with him because I can learn a lot from him, and he can learn a lot from me. Together we can do great things.”
