“I can’t remember how many good ones we’ve brought in and good deals in January.
“Henrik [Larsson] was good, Nemanja [Vidic] and Patrice [Evra], I’m talking about it’s hard, very hard, the clubs don’t want to lose their best players.”
Solskjaer also opened up on United’s Carabao Cup clash with Manchester City on Wednesday night.
The Red Devils go into the game 3-1 down from the first leg, having conceded three first half goals.
And Solskjaer admitted that he thought the tie was over at half-time in the showdown at Old Trafford, saying: “Well it looked like it was over at half-time.
“I have to say the second part of that first half they outplayed us for a while and it’s hard, but then we got the goal, back in it, we hope for another one but got to go into the memory bank and think PSG."
He added: "We have done it against good teams before and gives us hope and the game in December gives us hope.
"It has to be a perfect performance to win with two goals against such a good team away from home, for us it’s not about away goals, we just need to score two more than them.
"When it happens, how it happens, it would be good not to concede first, because that makes it less difficult."
