You know, Solskjaer failed at Cardiff and then yet was brought back.

When they were talking about him potentially coming back, I was thinking, oh my God, you know, our judges were repeating the same mistakes.

Why couldn't he be, why couldn't he be the manager?

I don't,

It would ultimately be determined by how well they finish the season, how well they recruit, what his plans are in terms of taking United.

back to where they belong not just having because when you know when the new manager comes in there's always a little bit of a bounce and everyone's got a clean slate and that's why you worry about these players is that were they when they revert to type i hear what you're saying i think there's going to be some quality managers available that's been well documented but that's not to say that just because they succeeded elsewhere they can succeed at united

The flip side of that, Joe, is that just because you play for United, it doesn't mean you understand it.

It doesn't.

I know that they say that, but clubs move on.

I couldn't go back to my old clubs and say that I know them inside out because I haven't been there for so long.

And everyone says, oh, he knows United and he knows Ferguson.

It's Alex Ferguson who had the success.

It's not essentially the Man United way.

It's Alex Ferguson.

They weren't successful before him.

No, I think at times you're looking at it and thinking, well, I certainly look at them games and think, the game against Forest was at risk at times, and the game against Liverpool was certainly at risk, yet they didn't lose.

And I know people can say, it's only really Villa with that late winner that have done that to Arsenal.

So there's so many times in every game for Arsenal where the opposition feel like they're in it, like Bournemouth, Everton in recent weeks, and yet they don't get over the line, Arsenal just get it done.

Even against Inter...

At the San Siro, there was a moment where you're thinking, oh, they could be under a bit of pressure.
