Keep showing Pogba the love he needs
Paul Pogba is another prized asset that Solskjaer must keep happy.The enigmatic France international is a proven game-changer and has thrived under the Norwegian and his assistant Mike Phelan, after a miserable time under former boss Mourinho.

Solskjaer’s permanent appointment could signal the departure of several fringe players, who have failed to establish themselves as first-team regulars under him.The United boss will undoubtedly want to make room for new arrivals in the summer.The likes of Antonio Valencia, Matteo Darmian and Marcos Rojo may all be nearing the end of their Old Trafford careers.
6Recruit players made of the ‘right stuff’
Solskjaer’s quest to reinstate the club as genuine Premier League title challengers would be given a massive boost with a couple of statement summer signings.United fans have for years debated that only a player with certain characteristics can become a crowd favourite at Old Trafford, while the feel-good factor generated by such a signing can never be underestimated.Sanchez’s ill-fated spell at the club has cranked up the pressure, so Solskjaer and his backroom team have to get their recruitment right.
