Since Unai Emery replaced Arsene Wenger as the manager in the summer, something changed at the Emirates Stadium.

Manchester United have made a lot of mistakes over the last few years. Sir Alex Ferguson’s retirement was always going to be the biggest challenge the club had ever faced, but no one involved with the Red Devils could have predicted the decline that followed. The last time United went 6 years without a league title was in 1992. The rot began with the appointment of David Moyes. An uninspiring manager who had no experience with an elite club like United, the Scot oversaw a horrifying tenure that left the club in 7th place by the end of the season.…
Manchester United finally cleared the air regarding the club’s next manager when they appointed their caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as the permanent manager of the club.

The pope’s plane landed in the capital Rabat shortly before 2 pm (1300…
Paul Pogba feels Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s success at Manchester United is down to restoring freedom to the players. Pogba fell out with predecessor Jose Mourinho, who dropped him from the side before leaving Old Trafford in December. But Solskjaer quickly made Pogba a key part of his team and the France midfielder was inspirational as the Red Devils won their first eight games in all competitions under the interim boss. Pogba’s fine form has been a cornerstone of United’s recovery under the Norwegian, who was given a three-year deal by the hierarchy on Thursday. And the World Cup winner made it…
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been appointed Manchester United’s new manager on a permanent basis, the Premier League club have announced.
