Stick To Football: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by SkyBet. On this week’s special episode we are delighted to be joined by former Manchester United player and manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Joined by former team-mates Gary Neville and Roy Keane alongside Ian Wright, Jamie Carragher and Jill Scott, the hosts start the show tucking into a special Norwegian stew dish, and it doesn’t take long for Roy to remind Ole of his miss against Bayer Leverkusen in the 2002 Champions League semi-finals.

Having last spent time as a manager at Manchester United, Ole reveals what really went on at the club during his tenure, including how he nearly signed Declan Rice, Erling Haaland and Jude Bellingham and what it was like working with Cristiano Ronaldo.

The man who made the 1999 Treble win possible also talks about what his winning goal against Bayern Munich and gives insight into the dressing room, telling never told before stories of what hobby Gary took up as a player and which guest Ole nearly had a fight with in the tunnel.

Finally we end on a min-quiz between Ole and Roy centred around the infamous Champions League semi-final against Bayer Leverkusen; who will have bragging rights between the former United duo?
