Red legend Ole Gunnar Solskjaer set to retire..

United fans around the world will this morning be coming to terms with the news that United's brilliant Norwegian striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is to retire due to the knee problems which have dogged his career over the last few seasons.

The news is not entirely unexpected as Ole has tried to comeback several times, but on each occasion he's suffered setbacks.

It is a sad day for Ole and no doubting his name will continue to be sung by United fans during matches for years to come.

The news of Ole's retirment was broken by his father who said:

"He would have liked to stay on and was hoping for a 100% recovery.

But something has happened with his knee which made it impossible for him to continue."

United fans will now be wondering if the Reds will move to replace Ole, but given the lack of time before the transfer window closes finding a quality replacement wont be easy. The logic in selling Rossi looks like a bad decision.
