The Premier League table on December 16 paints a bleak picture for United fans

When Solskjaer was confirmed, it was assumed the Norwegian was merely keeping the seat in the Old Trafford dugout warm for the summer when a ‘big-name’manager would be appointed.Mauricio Pochettino and Zinedine Zidane were initially touted as potential successors as fans clamoured for success after years in the wilderness.But, as the critics voiced their concerns, Solskjaer continued to pick up results both at home and away and suddenly became the leading contender for the full-time position.After toppling PSG in the Parc des Princes, the calls for the 46-year-old to be appointed turned from a murmur to a crescendo.OPTA3

The table since Solskjaer was appointed looks much more positive

And, when you look at the Premier League table since his appointment, it is now surprise to see why.With a host of rumoured transfer targets potentially lined up for the summer, United fans will be delighted to see Ole finally at the wheel.
