Paul Pogba has now joined the ranks of Anthony Martial, Romelu Lukaku and other Manchester United players that believe Ole Gunnar Solskjaer should be appointed full-time manager at the end of the season. As it stands right now, all signs seem to point to Solskjaer having the interim label removed from his job title, but if/when it happens it won’t be until season’s completion.

Although United headed into the break on a two game skid, he’s done a phenomenal job since he took over in mid December, and that’s reflected in his record. Conventional wisdom right now says he’s the only true candidate for the gig.

Worldwide, the Manchester United online community is buzzing about what Zlatan Ibrahimovic had to say in a wide-ranging exclusive with the Daily Mirror.

In the interview, Ibrahimovic slammed the Class of ’92 for their consistent criticisms of the current club status quo, said United should build around Marcus Rashford and Paul Pogba going forward, and that fixating on the club’s golden era, when Sir Alex Ferguson was in charge, is inhibiting their progress. One member of the Class of ’92, Ryan Giggs, has returned fire on Zlatan.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic wasn’t with Manchester United very long, but his short stint provided a lot of memorable moments. Perhaps the best season of the Jose Mourinho era at Old Trafford was the 2016-17 campaign, and that’s the term in which Ibrahimovic was the side’s leading scorer.

Mourinho is long gone now of course, and there are several players who are now finding themselves, and being all they can be under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who floundered or stagnated under the previous regime. Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford are two such examples, and they comprise the pair of players that Ibra believes United should build around going forward.

Manchester United are now on international break having lost back to back games for the first time since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer took over the club in mid December. The recent setbacks shouldn’t cloud the perception of the astounding job Solskjaer has done overall during the short time that he has been in charge.

The Norwegian took a club that was in shambles under Jose Mourinho and took them back into the top four (at least temporarily) and guided them to the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals, where they will face FC Barcelona.

Emotions ran high yesterday as Manchester United were dumped out of the FA Cup, with a 2-1 loss at Wolverhampton Wanderers in the quarterfinals. United central defender Victor Lindelof was totally livid after he was shown a straight red card by referee Martin Atkinson.

Lindelof initially received the harshest punishment possible for his hack on the opposing Diego Jota, but VAR led to the infraction being changed to a yellow. Television cameras caught the Swedish international screaming at the Wolves bench, and you can see the footage of that here:

We always wondered how the Manchester United of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer would react to their first Premier League loss, and the answer, which came yesterday, was not encouraging at all. United were dumped out of the FA Cup in the quarterfinals yesterday with a 2-1 loss to Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Molineux.

After the match, Solskjaer gave a scathing assessment of his own team’s dreadful performance. He said it was the worst outing that he’s seen from them, and that it was a couple steps backward from all the progress the Red Devils have made.
