Solskjaer Reveals All On Haaland, Ronaldo & United Exit | Stick to Football EP 22

Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by SkyBet. On this week’s special episode we are delighted to be joined by former Manchester United player and manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Joined by former team-mates Gary Neville and Roy Keane alongside Ian Wright, Jamie Carragher and Jill Scott, the hosts start the show tucking into a special Norwegian stew dish, and it doesn’t take long for Roy to remind Ole of his miss against Bayer Leverkusen in the 2002 Champions League semi-finals.
Having last spent time as a manager at Manchester United, Ole reveals what really went on at the club during his tenure, including how he nearly signed Declan Rice, Erling Haaland and Jude Bellingham and what it was like working with Cristiano Ronaldo.
The man who made the 1999 Treble win possible also talks about what his winning goal against Bayern Munich and gives insight into the dressing room, telling never told before stories of what hobby Gary took up as a player and which guest Ole nearly had a fight with in the tunnel.
Finally we end on a min-quiz between Ole and Roy centred around the infamous Champions League semi-final against Bayer Leverkusen; who will have bragging rights between the former United duo?

[@markggg4789]

Imagine a true club legend telling you "buy this player, he is the one" for 20 mill and Utd not listening to him, great example of where the clubs been since Sir Alex left. Roy what a legend, drives through the Norwegian snow for 9 hours to check on a mate, captain on and off the pitch even today.

[@axamitidynamit8355]

Yeah, and then the next manager says "buy him" and they’re willing to overpay four times for a certain Brazilian right winger. That just sums up this club these days.

[@akeemguy7331]

Bro.. While I agree missing out on Halaand was an issue (not desputing that part at all) I dont think Perez will sign a player just because Ramos says so I dont think City will sign a player just because Aguero says so I dont think Arsenal will sign a player just because Henry says so.. So not listening to a club legend as big an issue as you are making out..

[@ofusowre7620]

​​​@@axamitidynamit8355Good point. For me Haaland wasn't even the worst failure. How can Bellingham be at Carrington and United aren't able to buy him. Everyone knew he was talented. Give him an offer he can't refuse. Ole wanted him as well. It's unbelievable.

This is a great interview and it sounds like Ole's learned a lot in retrospect. It also explains how United managed to get such a long unbeaten away run going but somehow kept stumbling at home. I wouldn't object to having him back under Sir Jim. It showed that he knew how to get his team to play to their strengths but allowed the pressure of Old Trafford to get him to play "the United way" to get the better of his judgment. Counter attacking teams can be just as exciting to watch as well as the United teams that he played in.

Keane reacting to Ole's miss like its happening in real time is hilarious

[@bonbero7666]

Fun fact: At 1:26 Gary asks “why is it that Norwegian stew is the same as scouse?”. Norwegian stew, or “Lapskaus” as we call it, is a traditional Norwegian dish, and alongside porridge, that’s what the vikings usually ate. The vikings often travelled to the UK to plunder, and more specifically, they travelled a lot to Liverpool since it’s close to the sea, and the vikings would travel with their ships. They brought porridge, and more importantly, they brought lapskaus. Lapskaus would later be shortened to “skaus” and then scouse, which is also the reason why people from Liverpool are called scousers!😄 PS: I absolutely adore Solskjær, he was my childhood hero, as I am a Norwegian and a die-hard United fan!

Every episode is absolutely brilliant, but this was the best of the lot. Ole was a "fan-tas-tique" guest, and as a United fan, it reminded me how much I wanted him to succeed as manager. For me, he's been the best in the post-Sir Alex period. As always, the camaraderie is amazing between this lot; it feels like your sitting in the pub, listening to your mates chatting! I think Wrighty's bromance with Roy was challenged today with Ole next to him!

The only manager post SAF to truly get what managing United was about. Easily the best football United have played in that time was under Ole, not to mention his record against the big 6 was genuinely good. Wish he was given more time and leeway, forever a legend

Stop. The team won 59 times and lost or drew a combined 68 during his tenure. You can like the man but still see he wasn’t qualified to manage at that level.

Really?? He talks about possession being 50-50 up until half-time. The stats say the whole game was 62-38 for Liverpool and as you were 4-0 up at half-time I find what he says hard to believe. He's deluded.
