Ole Gunnar Solskjaer Retires From Football - Testimonial Announced!

[Jodz]

I have nothing else to add to what everybody said. Ole will always be remembered as a United legend. Who can ever forget his goal aganist Bayern Munich in the 1999 CL final.

Thank you Ole.

Great stuff in MEN about Ole. Starts off as a story about Saha and the striker situation, but then Fergie talks about Ole's new coaching responsibilities and provides some great insights into how Ole prepared himself for matches. A must read.

[soccerblitz]

we have forwards?

Oh you mean Oshea........... :D

lol, Oshea doesn't have the attributes of a striker, in fact, his midfield role is mediocre too.

[Optimus Prime]

Didn't he retire like 8 years ago?

No, he won us the CL eight years ago. Bit of a difference there buddy. :rolleyes:

Or to be more precise no one bothers their arse staying up in that shithole playing for that shower of sectarian wankers. Well cept the likes of the Brilliant bobbo Balde .

Larrsson was decent and was "Celtic Through and Through" so much so he ********ed off to a bigger club (Barca) and then the Biggest club of all (United)

soooooooo anymore sigs or wallpapers of Ole??? i mean collectively we must have more than 2 of both for a player we adore so much

[barroldinho]

I'll miss him. I remember him scoring on his debut and my auntie thinking he was some kid they'd let play for his birthday or something. I also remember reading that we'd signed him. My first thought was "How do you pronounce that? Solsc-jeeee-aaaaaair?"

Thanks for everything Mr Solskjaer. He was everything a United legend should be.

Haven't posted in this thread yet cause I didnt really have anyting to say...:(..*sigh Later OGS nice seeing you play.

[van_da_man]

I'd like to add something. When i was around 10 years old, i wrote a letter, addressed to Old Trafford. The letter detailed how Solskjaer was my favourite player at Man United. Months had passed, and around 5-6 months later, i had a letter sent back. Inside was a ''slip'', on one side there was a picture of Solskjaer, and next to the picture, was his autograph.

Unfortunately, that slip was lost when i was moving house. But it's the thought that counts. That really shows, that he really did care for the fans, and his affection for the club was unwaivering.

Top Pro, brilliant player. Thanks for the memories Ole.

[tobycon]

what a great sadness. OGS retires as a better player than many still playing. have a great rest Ole :)

Ole takes Reds coaching role

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer took temporary charge of United’s reserves side in Lisbon on Wednesday morning, and it marks the former Reds striker’s first steps into the coaching side of the game.

Solskjaer, who ended his playing career last month due to injury having scored 126 goals in 366 appearances for the Reds, won’t be taking up the Reserves role full-time, but Sir Alex Ferguson has confirmed that the Norwegian has joined the club’s coaching staff.

The 34-year-old has not yet been given an official job title, but he is to work closely with technical skills development coach Rene Meulensteen, with particular emphasis on coaching strikers throughout the club's ranks.

Sir Alex told ManUtd.com: “This is an ideal trip for Ole to come along and get involved with the coaching side of the game.”

Ole led the warm up and took charge of a reserves team including Tom Heaton, Dong Fangzhuo, Lee Martin, and Darron Gibson against a Sporting Lisbon team made up of first- and second-year Academy scholars.
