    Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits biggest Man Utd transfer regrets including England star who was ‘in the building’

    OLE GUNNAR SOLSKJAER has admitted he is plagued with regrets when it comes to failed transfers during his managerial tenure at Manchester United.The former Red Devils striker and Treble winner also opened up on the club failing to secure Jude Bellingham after he visited Carrington.Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has opened up on his biggest transfer regrets at Man UtdCredit: YouTube / The OverlapJude Bellingham visited United’s training complex during Solskjaer’s reignCredit: GettySolskjaer said United let Haaland slip through their fingersCredit: Instagram @erling.haalandInitially an interim coach, the Norwegian, now 51, ended up spending nearly three years in the role.Solskjaer told his former team-mates Roy Keane and Gary Neville that the club “should have” signed Declan Rice during his time at Old Trafford. He then rued over perhaps the biggest failed transfer bid – that for Erling Haaland.Speaking on the Stick to Football podcast, brought to you by Sky Bet, Solskjaer said: “I had him in Molde, for two seasons.READ MORE FOOTBALL NEWS”The summer before I joined United, I rang the club and said ‘You’ve got to sign this boy – he’ll be top class’.”They said no – they had enough reports on players. Then I became the caretaker manager and we’d sold Haaland to RB Salzburg. “I told the club straight away to buy him while he has a release clause. We knew that then, and no one else would’ve paid the money – £20 million, it would’ve been a bargain.”When quizzed by Gary Neville on Bellingham’s proposed transfer, he said: “He was in the building. I was there, Sir Alex Ferguson was there, Bryan Robson and Eric Cantona were all there that day. Most read in FootballBEST FREE BET SIGN UP OFFERS FOR UK BOOKMAKERS”We all spoke to him and sold it as well as we could. He knew what he wanted a certain amount of minutes in the first team. “He was 17 at the time, and he was the most mature 17-year-old I’ve ever met – he had it all planned out.”Solskjaer then stated that the decision to bring Cristiano Ronaldo back to Old Trafford proved to be a mistake, as it required him to change how he asked his team to play.He explained: “With the ball, with him in the team, it was no problem. But without him pressing, we had to change the different roles we’d gotten used to. Solskjaer reveals gut-wrenching text before Man Utd sacking after players broke down in tears in dressing room”We were one of the highest pressing teams before Ronaldo joined. We let Dan James go when Cristiano came in, and they’re two different types of players. “It was the right decision to make for me – but it didn’t turn out to be the right one.”Following a second place finish in the previous season, Solskjaer was sacked within three months of signing the 37-year-old Ronaldo from Juventus, following a 4-1 defeat to Watford.During Solskaer’s appearance on the podcast, he also revealed the moment that he received a brutal text from the chief executive.The Norwegian also had regrets over how the Ronaldo transfer was handledCredit: Getty More

    Man Utd boost in Marc Guehi transfer bid as Crystal Palace draw up shortlist to replace England star

    CRYSTAL PALACE are preparing for Marc Guehi’s potential departure in the summer with Manchester United and other Premier League giants keeping tabs.Guehi, 23, has been among the Prem’s brightest defenders since joining Palace from Chelsea in 2021 following an £18million deal, which led to 108 appearances at Selhurst Park.Crystal Palace have drawn up a shortlist of potential replacements for Marc GuehiCredit: GettyGuehi has been linked with Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal and TottenhamThe centre-back’s performances have sparked immense interest from the likes of United and Liverpool, while Tottenham and Arsenal have also enquired in the past.And according to The Telegraph, the Eagles have compiled a list of potential candidates to replace the England international in a sign that chances of a potential departure have grown significantly.Guehi has only two years left on his Palace contract, which means this summer may be his club’s final chance to sell him for a significant fee.The Chelsea academy graduate is reportedly worth more than the club-record £50million United splashed for Aaron Wan-Bissaka in 2019.Read More on FootballThe Red Devils are expected to seek for defensive reinforcement after their turbulent campaign comes to an end in May.However, a bid for Guehi will largely depend on whether proposed sporting director Dan Ashworth is appointed in time for the summer transfer window.Ashworth’s Newcastle contract doesn’t allow him to start working for another team until his deal runs out in 2026.Therefore, the transfer expert faces an extended gardening leave unless United fork out a staggering £20m as compensation to the Magpies.Most read in FootballNevertheless, the ex-Brighton chief is a big admirer of Guehi and thus much will depend on his status this summer.The Palace star, though, is currently dealing with a knee injury he suffered last month and could be sidelined for another four weeks.Southgate announces Marc Guehi’s addition to the England squadHowever, England manager Gareth Southgate is expected to have him at his disposal for Euro 2024.New Palace manager Oliver Glasner is facing an uphill battle to hold onto Guehi this summer and the same goes for two of his other biggest stars in Eberechi Eze and Michael Olise.

    ‘Never seen this before’ – Jamie Carragher spots Pep’s brand new tactic to beat Man Utd with Stones in shock position

    JAMIE CARRAGHER lavished praise on John Stones after he performed a tactic “never seen before” as Manchester City beat United.Marcus Rashford’s 30-yard strike stunned the Etihad but the Red Devils barely threatened Pep Guardiola’s team after that.John Stones was instrumental in Man City’s win over Man UtdCredit: AlamyJamie Carragher highlighted the new way Pep Guardiola deployedCredit: Sky Sports”We’re watching something that I’ve never seen in English football before…” 😮@Carra23 evaluates John Stones’ performance so far at Manchester City 🔵 pic.twitter.com/ptghB4FxNq— Sky Sports Premier League (@SkySportsPL) March 4, 2024

    Despite their dominance, they still went in at the break leading – largely thanks to Erling Haaland’s “worst miss ever” – but then Phil Foden took centre stage.The 23-year-old England attacker curled a superb shot past Andre Onana to level on 56 minutes.United remained set up to try to stifle City and were hanging on at 1-1 until Foden struck again with ten minutes to go before Haaland rounded off the scoring in stoppage time to secure Manchester derby bragging rights and the 3-1 victory.While Foden stole the headlines, it was his team-mate that Sky Sports pundit Carragher wanted to talk about on Monday Night Football.READ MORE ON FOOTBALLEngland defender Stones, 29, often performs the hybrid role for City, but yesterday he was going from centre-half into the No.10 position and “running the game”.Carragher said: “We are watching something that I’ve never seen before in English football and I’ve been watching since the mid-80s.“The only defender back then that you would class as a defender good on the ball would be Alan Hansen of Liverpool.“I then remember watching [Franco] Beresi, who was pretty similar and would come out with the ball from the back, Rio Ferdinand, I think, was another one of those…Most read in FootballBEST FREE BET SIGN UP OFFERS FOR UK BOOKMAKERS“The only one I can think that was doing what John Stones is doing now is Mathias Sammer around Euro ’96 for Germany.“But John Stones is going from centre-back to No.10. We’ve never seen this before.”Gary Neville says ‘my heart sank’ after seeing what Erik ten Hag did before Man Utd clash – but Carragher loved itCarragher showed Stones’ heat map from the game which revealed that the ex-Everton man had completed 39 passes in that forward position.The Liverpool legend said: “Interesting thing at the top there is the 39 passes completed, the most he’s ever had in a Premier League game.“Why has he had so many touches, even though he has been playing this role for 12 months, and it’s because of the set-up of Man Utd and their marking system in midfield.”Carragher then showed a number of clips and stills from the game showing how United were not only set-up, but also revealing how City took advantage of a gap in front of their defence left by the lack of a holding midfielder.He said: “Whenever Pep Guardiola comes up against Erik ten Hag he always splits his No.8s wider and, at times, we’ve seen Haaland come deep to get the ball, Rodri make runs into this space and this time it was John Stones running into this space.”Carragher criticised United for not being compact last week against Fulham, upsetting Ten Hag in the process.But that did not stop him from showing another example of them defending deep against City with the key area he had spoken about once again being available to exploit.“[Kobbie] Mainoo is with Kevin De Bruyne, Casemiro drops into centre-back basically because of the man marking system that they employ.READ MORE SUN STORIES“Looks at John Stones now, he’s enticing Jonny Evans out of position.
