Man Utd: Solskjaer says team are ‘always looking to improve’
Former Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is said to be encouraged by the form of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side in the past few weeks and he is an admirer of the job his old player is doing at Old Trafford. The Red Devils are the Premier League's form team at the moment and they have not lost in 18 matches in all competitions.
The arrival of Bruno Fernandes proved to be the catalyst behind United's mid-season upswing and they could not finish third in the table come the end of the campaign.
United will then have to dust themselves down for the completion of the Europa League in Germany while they could still reach the FA Cup final too.
Ferguson still very much remains connected to the club and often speaks to Solskjaer, while he has no influence on his decisions, the Scotsman is not afraid to give his verdict.
According to The Mirror, a source close to the 78-year-old claims Ferguson is impressed with Solskjaer's ability to make crunch decisions.

Solskjaer adjusted his transfer plans in 2019 to ensure he did not block Greenwood's path to the first team.
Now he is excited to oversee his development: “Mason is way ahead of what I was when I was 18, 19, that’s for sure," he said.
“He’s got a knack of scoring goals. I don’t really want to say anything different because it’s natural for him and it was what I felt I could do well as well.
“He’s a brilliant boy to work with. He keeps on learning, keeps on making better and better decisions.”
McTominay recently extended his stay at Old Trafford in a deal which will keep him there until at least 2025.
