Red Devils’ legend Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has given his backing to Sir Alex Ferguson ahead of their crunch Premier League decider against Manchester City.
United, who were dominant, in the latter stages of the campaign have themselves stumbled and are now only three points ahead of the Citizens in the standings.
That lead could evaporate if http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roberto-c31294 Mancini’s men come out on top at the Etihad and it will see them claim the League title after 44 years of waiting.
However Fergie’s troop are not going to go down without a fight and the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ryan-Giggs-c31985 will be raring to go on the night, which promises to be the most pivotal of the season.
Manchester derbies are always feisty owing to the relations between the two rivals but the added pressure of securing the English Premier League has escalated the game to mammoth proportions.
Pundits and players have furiously argued over the potential score line and while the momentum seems to be with Manchester City, former Old Trafford favourite Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has backed the reigning champions to win the League once again.
Speaking to reporters, the ex-striker claimed that United’s experience coupled with the presence of Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson will help them come out on top not only in the match but will also see them win their 20th title.
"It's because they've done this before and (they have) http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Paul-Scholes-c29394,” the Norwegian said.
"One thing is at least certain. The boss loves to be in such situations. He loves to be in situations where there is so much at stake. He does not have any sleepless nights."
"He will talk with the players where he sees the need... Ferguson is tremendously good in such situations and will probably play down the significance of the match to the players.”
United relied on Solskjaer to get them out of sticky situations if they are a goal or two down, and while they don’t have that option anymore, Mexican sensation Javier Hernandez has shown that he can replicate the Norwegian’s feats and could prove to be
the key to unlocking a stubborn City defence.
