"Who put the ball in the Germans' net????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
 
 
 
One of my strongest football memories, not a Manc fan, but what an ending to a game!!
 
"Bloody hell, football eh"

When Solskjaer scored...

i was in a bar in a small town in Brittany. It was packed. Three of us were encouraging** ManU (me, the bar owner and, Clare, my girlfriend)... The rest of the crowd were principally French with half a dozen Germans. When
Solskjaer scored... when Solskjaer scored...   Clare, who never swears, was yelling "I don't %&&^% believe it".  Me and bar owner were jumping up and down and trying to hug each other.....   The rest of the bar, perhaps fifty people, were in silence and just staring at us... 



** No idea why!

no different from the much maligned Winston Bogarde.  Spent his entire career sitting on the bench, instead of going to another club and play every week.
 
Scored some goals (loads off the bench in 4-0 wins, after coming on at 3-0) and 1 important goal, but lets not get carried away.  I mean, legend????????  Come on!  Duncan Edwards can be called a legend - career ended after dying in a plane crash - but I don't belive that Ole Gunnar can.

he did come of the bench once and get 4!, v Notts forest i think (which dates it a bit!!)
 
agreed not a legend (that would be Waggy!!!)   but a pretty cool finisher, sort of Greavesy style 
 
and if you are going to score a winner in injury time, that one particular game wouldn't be a bad situation to do it in!

It does seem ridiculous that someone who still looks like they are 14 is actually retiring... TheJam2007-09-01 00:50:30

Your legend may be Dave Wagstaff, but mine is John Chiedozie, ez Os, Spurs and Notts C.
Which makes me sadder cos Chiedozie now owns a bouncy castle hire company.

Did well for someone who was allergic to grass, have to say (even as Liverpool fan which he supposedly was too) he was a good player as a striker and as a right midfielder filling in for Beckham.
