Solskjaer retires

Solskjaer quits due to knee injury
Manchester United favourite Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has retired due to a knee injury, according to Sky Sports News.


Solskjaer will be forever remembered in United folklore for scoring the dramatic winner in the UEFA Champions League final against Bayern Munich in 1999.

That goal was one of almost 130 he scored for The Red Devils after joining from Molde in a £1.5million transfer 11 years ago.

He made over 360 appearances for the club, but recent seasons have been blighted by injury.

The 34-year-old did maintain a level of fitness last season, scoring 11 goals as United won the title and reached the FA Cup final.

But he did not figure during the pre-season campaign after undergoing a knee operation over the summer.

This was expected to be his final season as a player at Old Trafford, but he has now decided to announce his retirement.

Solskjaer's decision to quit could prompt Sir Alex Ferguson to rethink his attacking options prior to the close of the transfer window.

Along with Wayne Rooney, Carlos Tevez and Louis Saha, Solskjaer was expected to form part of Ferguson's plans up front.

But the United manager may now require further reinforcements in attack, having been linked with Bolton Wanderers' forward Nicolas Anelka.

Big baller. Ferguson should have give him a run out with all the injuries rather than look to buy again.

Really sad to see this man career end on this note...but still, God. 

Growing up my loyalties were split in good measure between Liverpool and ManU and Yorke being there coincided with Ole's rise to prominence, the heyday of my support.  I'm not going to speak of the man as though he's dead, but he was a class player who wrung every ounce of performance out of his abilities and just wish that he had the chance to go out on a more positive note.

The biggest skill I ever see him put down was in a CL game, either a goal kick or similar long ball forward.
The man runnin lookin over his shoulder at de ball, he let de ball drop and hit it a ROLL-TRAP, right into his stride, and buss de net.
I never see anybody do dat since.

Look a good comp.
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3

De goal I talkin about is in Part 2 at 3:09.  They don't show the close-up though so yuh cah see what he did.
