The Baby Faced Assassin Dreams

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has big dreams for his Manchester United future. The striker, who retired from the active roster last year, has stayed at the club as a goodwill ambassador, and now full-time coach for United‘s reserve squad. Solskjaer has said that he hopes to one day become a manager, and because his future interests remain in being a part of Manchester United, that means someday Solskjaer could see himself as having Ferguson’s position at some point..
The way Gunnar saw the game could benefit the squad immensely I suppose. As his playing style fit the Manchester United mold perfectly, with his penchant for counter-attacking and late goal scoring. I guess if he can teach young players to see the game his way, it will continue the legacy Ferguson has set in motion with Manchester United.
Speaking of Manchester United, Sir Alex is furious with the 2008/2009 fixtures schedule. United have to play away from home following every Champions League group stage match, and it has specifically pissed off Ferguson. I think it seems a bit harsh I guess, but I think the Scot also tends to whine a lot.
But then you can’t argue with results.
