Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will look to make it five wins from five as Manchester United caretaker manager when his side take on Reading in the FA Cup this weekend.Ahead of the third round tie, Solskjaer has faced the media to field questions ranging from his January transfer plans to crowning his temporary Old Trafford tenure with a cup medal.
5On if he could have hoped for better start at Manchester United
Not better because you cant do it better but obviously when you come in to a club like this, you expect to win games and when you win four you expect to win the next one as well. I dont look at these games and think well, we cant win that – I think we can win every single game.
5On if he has spoken with the club about his future
No, no, no its early doors and, of course, when I came in they were open and honest about, theyre going to have a process, looking for the next manager but the more youre here, the more you enjoy it but its one game at a time and the day they announce the next manager, if its me or someone else, good luck.On January transfer plans
The clubs probably had a plan, you dont just plan the next day and next month but this transfer window has probably been planned since the summer and year before, the next transfer window, the structure is phenomenal.Im sure theyve got their targets, Im here to voice my opinion on that and Im sure well sit down, me and Ed [Woodward, executive vice-chairman] if weve got anything in the pipeline. Im here to work with the ones Ive got, theyve all performed and as long as they perform they should get a chance but thats my job to improve the team and individuals.
5On the reception from the fans
I dont look at it that way, Im quite, I dont get distracted very easily, Im very focused I know what my job is. My job is Reading, Dubai then Tottenham, I just focus on what my job was as a player and now.On if Uniteds trip to Dubai will be a chance to get to know his players
Ive got to know them, had plenty of time to speak with them but not much time to train so if any of the players think its a holiday theyre wrong, were there to stick together, to work hard on the physical part of it ahead of the Tottenham game.On winning the FA Cup
Were about winning trophies and FA Cup final is such a fantastic one to play in, I played in 1999 at Wembley. I think that was the last one at Wembley. Having watched so many FA Cup finals as a kid, to walk from the dressing room to the pitch was fantastic, Ive seen so many times in Norway.Thats what we hope for, get to the final, whatever competition youre in, you want to win and you expect, Im not sure if you expect to win it, but thats more or less what you do expect from a club like this and players weve got.
5On his new squad of players
Theyve not scared me yet. Ive enjoyed working with them, they want to learn and improve, thats key, if youre hungry and humble enough to improve then well improve as a team in the end.On team news for Reading match
[Marcos] Rojo and [Chris] Smalling are out. Im not sure if Paul [Pogba] is going to be ready, he got a knock against Newcastle and hopefully [Marouane] Fellaini will get through the session today its more or less a full squad.On if his fringe players will feature
Definitely, therell be a few changes to the team and theyll get a chance. Some of them are itching now to play of course, get [Romelu] Lukaku a start, get [Alexis] Sanchez a start, thats important for them because they need more game time.
5On if Wednesdays 2-0 win at Newcastle was his best yet
It depends on how you look at it. Maybe the first three games were the honey moon and you expect to win. You go up there [to Newcastle] and its a difficult place to go. All in all, yes its a first clean sheet. To come away with three points, brilliant, but I enjoyed the home games more.On what he learned from his players against Newcastle
I thought it would be a tough one and Id learn how theyd react. I felt we were a bit safer in the way we played but second half you could see the pace, the power, the counter-attacking, the forward thinking and solid at the back.
