Why St Ole is still pure class.......

Last night United fielded 7 full internationals but Crewe still managed to make United look very average and for large parts of the game second best.

One man stood out for United and it was Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Despite being injured for two years, the Norwegian still looks class, every touch assured, none more so than his brilliant first half goal, which was superbly taken and it happened in the blink of the eye. No wonder he's called the smiling assassin.

He's a bit like a Rolls Royce, with all of his moving parts in perfect harmony. Long may it continue.

The final score was Crewe 1 United 2. It was entertaining, but largely due to the home side. United's youngsters had a mixed night, but at least reds fans had St Ole to remember on an otherwise largely disappointing night of performances.
