Solskher will not be fixed in “MJ”. Norwegian specialist in the summer will give way to Pochettino

“Manchester United”, after two and a half years of cooperation, dismissed Jose Mourinho. The Portuguese during this time won the League Cup, the Supercup of England and the Europa League, but did not become the second Alex Ferguson for Manchester. Immediately after the departure of the Portuguese, it was assumed that his assistant, Michael Carrick, would temporarily replace him, but the club made another decision, “writing out” in Norway another legendary ex-player, Ole-Gunnar Solskher. Moreover, he was invited to the position of acting head coach.
It is rather strange that the Premier League allowed the coach to be declared as acting leader. for half a year – usually specialists are allowed to work with this prefix for about a month, after which the management must necessarily find a successor in order, or, having made sure of the professional ability of the temporary worker, conclude a permanent contract with him. Anyway, Sulskher is unlikely to have the opportunity to gain a foothold in the camp of the once-native club.
Reason number 1: United needs Pochettino
First, Manchester United, according to the press, is incredibly willing to get Argentinean Mauricio Pochettino, who is doing the impossible with Tottenham, with a modest budget. It is rumored that the smiling South American did not move to work for United right now only because the Red Devils leadership did not wish to pay a penalty for early termination of the contract with a 46-year-old specialist.
Pulling Pochettino out of London in December would hardly have allowed Daniel Levy, chairman of the board of directors of Spurs, an English manager to stop firing coaches almost every year, giving out full credibility to the former Southampton mentor. By the way, one of the reasons why a simple contract was not signed with Sulskher until the end of the season may be Woodward’s desire to bring the Pochettino transfer negotiations to a compromise. It is much easier to dismiss an acting officer from a financial point of view than a coach who has signed a permanent contract, albeit until the end of the season.
Pochettino is known for his ability to work well with young talents, revealing hidden abilities in them – this was the case, for example, with Eric Dyer, who came to Tottenham on the position of central defender, and then became the highest-level defensive midfielder, who constantly received calls for banners of the national team of England. Apparently, the management of United wants to appoint Pochettino in the summer to conduct work with young players, because from a financial point of view, it is much better to buy inexpensive talent or find a diamond at the Academy than to invite famous players who may not be revealed.
Reason number 2: Solskher did not head the top clubs.
Secondly, Solskjer does not have experience in a serious club. We emphasize that it is in a serious club, and not at a serious level – these are different things. Together with Molde, Solskjer, who was called the Killer with the Face of the Infant for his external data and ability to hit the gates of his rivals, spoke in the Europa League and came face to face with Zenit St. Petersburg this year. In Cardiff, where Sulskher was invited in 2014, the coach failed in all aspects, having bought second-class compatriots, each of whom did not pull the level of the Premier League at all. The Welsh team flew out, Sulskher was left at the helm of the “swallows”, but in mid-September the Norwegian resigned his authority – even in the Championships his work was considered unfair and asked to follow the door.

By the way, Sulscher was already in coaching at Manchester United – from 2008 to 2011, the Norwegian was the commander-in-chief of the Red Devils youth (reserve, to be exact). With the young “devils” Sulscher made good progress, 8 years ago, winning the championship youth championship, as well as winning three trophies in parallel. Then, with him, United played Mame Diouf, former CSKA Moscow player Zoran Tosic, as well as compatriot Magnus Aykrem, who didn’t show anything at Cardiff under Sulschere.
Reason number 3: top player – do not have top trainer
Thirdly, an eminent player is far from being obliged to become a top-level coach. In addition, United now needs not a former player at the helm who can win a series of matches due to his character and prestige, but a subtle psychologist, because the club has fallen into a serious psychological peak.
“Devils” is quite difficult to realize that you can forget about the championship right now, and before the zone of entry into the Europa League they need to earn at least 8 points in order to catch up with the Arsenal in fifth position.
The appointment of Solskher maximum can please the old-timers of the family sectors who come to Old Trafford to support the club. “Devils” do not score enough — perhaps from these positions Sulskher will come in handy, since when he was a player, he left the bench and with enviable stability hit the gates of his rivals. The frightening lightness that seized Sulsjer near the gates of the United, is just lacking.
