I'm watching the press conference live, and he just signed for Molde! He's takin Richard Hartis with him, and Mark Dempsey is also part of his team..

And now that he's gone there is a tear in my eye

Thank you for everything Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, you will never be forgotten.

You cannot teach defiance you either have it or you don't.

The number 20 shirt and the one who proudly wore it was one of the greatest beacons of defiance within Manchester United.

Come back when you are ready to come back we are all waiting.

He was alright...

But I'd of expected a hell of a lot more for the money we paid for him

LEGEND!

Coolest, most deadly finisher ever at United - headers, left foot, right foot, long range, short range, poacher's goals - was there anything he couldn't do?

Oh, and the tackle against Newcastle wasn't bad either ;)

Nice juxtaposition - right beneath the 2 tributes to Ole is the "Lamps 4 Wazza 4eva IDST" article. Both deadly strikers, both once loved by their fans, but I'll only be sorry to see one go.

Great video, great player. I hope he'll be back. He was one of the smartest players I ever saw. Would come of the bench and know -exactly- what to do, and do it. I still remember listening to the radio back at uni when he came off the bench against Forest with twenty minutes to play and scored four. Such a great reader of the game. I think he'll be a spectacular manager.

Great Player and a Great Man...
You will be missed Ole :(
Hope to see you back soon and all the best for whatever you do in future.

Wow.. Thanks Costas for bringing back the memories of the tackle in the game against toons. One of the moment which will definatly make you fall in Love with Ole, if you already haven't.

Ole might not have been the fastet, or the strongest, or the most flamboyant striker but there he had three key ingridients:

He knew where the goal was
He knew where to stand
He had two great feet

All the best of luck to you and I hope we'll se you at Old Trafford in a couple of years!

Without doubt the best 'natural' finisher the game has ever and will ever see and I do not care who you through into the mix of this debate, right foot, left foot, headers, volleys, tap ins, always in the right place, sliding in goals... what a LEGEND.............. You will ALWAYS be in our hearts OLE

You can throw anyone in to the mix lol. My old man says Greavesy was the best goalscorer there's ever been, but in my generation, I'd go with Van Basten.

What a montage, pure dead brilliant.
Anybody who is not smiling like crazy through that aint a United fan.
A man who could score in so many different ways and made it look easy. The sign of class.
The heart of a lion, no fear.
The molde was broken when they made him!

Nice.

I think it's fair to say Ole knew where the goal was....

A wonderful player and a fine man. You're welcome back at Old Trafford any time, Ole. T-ra for now!

OLEgend!!!!

If you guys looked at the video, it just shows the commitment and love that this guy have for UNITED.

OLE is always there when there is a rebound or save from the keepers or defenders.

I don't see anyone runs all the way like him anymore.

UNITED strikers should really learn from this legend.
