Also assists and all the goals he actually set up for his team being the third or fourth person on the ball before giving it to one of his teammates, aka creating the goal scoring oportunity. Along with his defensive ability, workrate for his team on the pitch, one of the best. Especially his ability to create goal chances for his team was exceptional and mostly forgotten.

Also he played as a right winger for a while so that would knock his goals to minutes ratio down.

I don't know if Ole was the best bench player of all time, but it was definitely the best one Manchester United ever had. Indeed to my knowledge, Ole invented the concept of a bench player being capable of winning Championships and Cups. Back in the day if a player was not a regular 1st team starter most fans hardly knew his name.

Don't forget about little pea.. He had a great habit of coming off the bench in the dying embers of a game and getting the job done..

The fact that he is basically two-footed should have been mentioned

I played against him when he was a young player (18-19-20 yrs old). He was lively, enthusiastic, good shot from all angles. Played for his club Clausenenga i Kristiansund before going professional. Allways scoring a lot of goals in third-level football in norway. Was also a leader in young age. Around the age of 21 going to Molde he surprised people how he took the level straight away and became a hit from the start at top level with Molde FK.

I remember that back in the Treble season, I was working for an ad agency in Manchester that had United as one of its clients. I'd be called upon to promote the museum, executive boxes and retail side of the business. The United fans had a song then that went "You are my Solksjaer, my Ole Solksjaer/ You make me happy, when skies are grey/ Cause Alan Shearer was fucking dearer/ Please don't take my Solksjaer away". I was asked to record a radio ad in a studio in Stockport that featured this song, but the third line was changed by United to "Cause when it's pouring, he still keeps scoring". I'm still ashamed of my involvement in that to this day. But anyway, "And Solksjaer has done it" is still the absolute peak. Unless the grey-haired assassin has other ideas.

To be effective off the bench you need to read the game as it unfolds. Ole was so good at that as a player and the current United strikers especially the younger ones can learn a thing or two from his positioning in the 6 yard box. The abuse he gets from the so-called supporters is too much imo. Sure he makes mistakes but it does not warrant that level of disrespect.

He gets as long as he needs in my book, a total legend no matter what happens and deserving of a good shot at it. It feels like watching United again, and that was a distant memory before he took over.

What made him so good as a substitute was the way he would watch the way the game was being played and analyse what the defence was doing and spot weaknesses before ruthlessly exploiting them.

Extreme game intelligence that allowed him to read the game (often from the bench) which made him a very good positional player, always ending up in positions where the ball would mysteriously land at his feet. Very, very good finisher with both legs and superb technique allowed him to get quick shots on target before defenders and the GK could react. Loyal to the team, manager and fans. In todays sport maybe underrated, but Ole knew that every minute he got he had to be the best he could be and if he did that he was just as important as the players that regularly got full games. The injuries to Solskjaer is perhaps the main reason why he didn't end up playing more than he did, but he did everything that was asked of him as a club icon and legend.

When a commentator just says "nothing new he scores again " thats all you need to know.

He would sit on the bench together with SAF and view the game and evaluate it and then he told Sir Alex how he could change it, and in most games he actually did so when Sir Alex let him on the pitch. That's also why he have become such a good manager

He was a match winner plain and simple.

Ole was 1 of a kind of a player & not just for his knack for coming off the bench and scoring goals, but also for the way he conducted himself with Man Utd. Not once did you ever complain about been sat on the bench as a sub and he knew it was more about the squad rather than individuals. He turned Spurs down knowing he would have been a first-team regular had he gone there and I always remember watching the 99 CL final and him getting interviewed after the game saying "People always asked me why didn't I go to another team and play more regular. This is the reason I didn't go anywhere". A true professional and there never has and never will be a player like him. Never underrated nor underappreciated by any true football fan. Great video. 94 Ajax team video would be nice sometime, please.

I just love these videos man, so elaborate, and especially love when you include statistics

I can still remember to this day sitting in my bedroom as an 11 year old watching the champions league final. I've never felt pure joy watching football before or since all thanks to the legend that is the baby faced assassin.

This was the most perfect career summary of Ole that I've watched! Thanks mate. 😁 #ggmu

Ole is a legend, not for padded stats but for the difference he made. Whenever he was on the pitch he was dangerous and in big games he always turned up. He loved united as a player, as a youth coach, as a manager elsewhere and as the manager. The reason united fans love him is because he would give everything as a player and delivered so many brilliant moments, like the 98/99 fa cup and champions league goals as well as all the games he helped us win in the prem that season. It's so good to have him back, I can't wait to see him lift another trophy for united.

My childhood hero. I was always very proud to have the same name as him. I lived 50 meters from a very beautiful fotball field in Norway called greibanen. I think in 1999 or something the Norwegian football team had a practise there. So many people stormed him for an autograph and i was to little to get close. But there was one moment I'll never forget when he saw me walking towards the buss. He walked out of it cause he saw me standing alone with my ball wating for him, but the entire buss of the Norwegian team started shouting at him so he turned :D

there was no online shop back then... the first man united jersey i got has SOLSKJAER 20 in it my favorite Forward ever!

Actually, when he was bought to the club, the scout was scouting on their next buy, Ronny Johnsen. The scout was watching a national game, Norway against Aserbadjan or something. He was at the game to take a last look at Ronny johnsen who played in Turkey at that time. The national team of Norway had the best defenders in the world back then . Henning Berg slipped past Fergies fingers, and went to Blackburn, and was on the winning team of 95. So he got Ronny. But at that Game, Ole came in, a high ball came towards him, he took it down on his chest, turn around and shot it directly in the goal, all in the same movement. The scout chocked on his sossage, got up, called home, and since Ole was a bargain , cost like Rooneys car budget, United did a doubble deal.

After having stumbled upon the channel this afternoon and watching 5 videos back to back, I've come to find the channel more entertaining than the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with each video being an individual superhero film that all connect together to tell the story of the Premiere League.

One thing that stands out about Solksjaer was his reading of the game, as a often as.a substitute, he would be looking for spaces left by defenders, his pace was another underappreciated asset and his two footedness stood him out. But it's his calmness, patience and belief in his abilities that made him the striker he was and the ever improving manager at United he is developing into. Solksjaer's physical fitness also helped his goalscoring, rarely injured, able to shrug off big centre halfs. Solksjaer also played on the wing often to accommodate Ruud Van Nistelrooy, often taking David Beckham's place notably in a Champions League QF game in 2003 against Real Madrid when United flight back from 3-2 to win 4-3...

I lived and loved him as a player in the 1998-1999 season so Ole my old friend ;)

I think one of the best things, and one of the reasons he is so universally beloved, is that he was loyal - not only to United but to the Norwegian teams that brought him up - and that he was happy and proud to be a super sub. Even out of the starting 11 he was always a contributor to any and all success United had - and as you said, a feared tool in Fergusons belt who could tip the scale of a match due to presence and reputation alone.

Without him we couldnt look back and brag about 1999 season xD
