Ole Gunnar Solskjaer quotes: Best Quotes about Solskjaer

 “He was a marvellous finisher, one of the best I have known.”

– Sir Alex Ferguson quotes about Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

“Ole is a lovely guy and, whenever I’m asked about him, I’ve never had a bad word to say. He came into the football club and we didn’t know who he was but, by the time he left, everyone in football knew him. He did a super job and I thoroughly enjoyed playing with him when I had the opportunity. He certainly spurred me on, whether he was in the team or out of the team. He didn’t have a malicious bone in his body and that’s why I liked him even more.

– Andy Cole quotes on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

“Ole was a terrific player for the club and it was not a surprise that came when we had great success by winning the Treble. Of course, he was a key part of that. He’s a terrific character and the boss could play him anywhere he wanted to because he would always give his all. He was just a natural goalscorer and, with him being such a nice character and a good lad around the place as well, he was simply the perfect player to have in your squad.”

– Bryan Robson quotes on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

“He is a legend for what he has done here [at Manchester United]. His goal to win the Champions League, and all-round he has been a great ambassador for United.

– David Moyes’ Ole Gunnar Solskjaer quotes

“It was obvious that his desire was to be a coach… but more than that it was a desire to be the best you can be. I’m very lucky that he never complained, I don’t think any other player of that quality would have stood for it. Teddy [Sheringham] always moaning at me, and I can understand because he was a great player… but Ole never complained. He had that fantastic patience.”

– Sir Alex Ferguson in his new book, Alex Ferguson: My Autobiography.
