Fergie praise for ‘inspiring’ United legend Solskjaer

ALEX FERGUSON has acclaimed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as a true footballing inspiration.

At a time when Cristiano Ronaldo’s commitment to the Manchester United cause is being questioned on an almost daily basis, over 70,000 fans will turn out today to honour Solskjaer’s 12 years with the club.

Although the knee injury which forced Solskjaer to quit the game 12 months ago will limit him to a 20-minute cameo against Espanyol, he is certain to be afforded a reception United reserve for only their very favourite sons.
