Solskjaer dreaming of treble
-
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes Manchester United are capable of winning the treble this season.
Solskjaer was one of the heroes of the club's historic 1998/99 campaign, when United triumphed in the Premiership, the FA Cup and the UEFA Champions League.
United are still involved in all three competitions this term and are leading the way in the league, and Solskjaer feels the achievement is within striking distance once again.
"I can see some similarities with the team now and the team we had in 1999," the Norwegian told Dagbladet.
"We're back in 4-4-2, and we have a lot of pace in attack, like we had with Andy Cole and Dwight Yorke.
"It looks good. It won't be easy, but we have the potential."
Solskjaer feels the arrival of Henrik Larsson on loan from Helsingborgs has been a massive plus for United, despite the fact that his own appearances have been restricted as a result.
Larsson has scored twice and contributed to several fine performances since joining in January, but Solskjaer has not been surprised by the impact he has had.
"I didn't expect anything else," he told MUTV.
"We all know Henrik is a quality player. I have said before I think he is the best Scandinavian player since Michael Laudrup - and he has shown that in training and games.
"His touch is something we can all learn from.
"You never stop learning as a player and Henrik has done a few tricks in training that have had us all standing up and looking and saying 'we have not seen that before'." -
