Manchester United hero Paul McGrath insists manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is living on his playing career.
He wrote for the Sunday World: "If Ole hadn't done so much for the club as a player, he probably wouldn't have survived to lead the team into last night's game at Tottenham. Yet Solskjaer is reserved a special place in United's history and that is the primary reason why a lot of the club's real fans will never turn against him.
"They might think he's not the right man to lead the club, but they will never jeer or boo him because they remember what he has done for United.
"His 1999 Champions League-winning goal was legendary stuff and his legacy has bought him a little bit of time to continue for now.
"He would have been expecting a big reaction from his team at Spurs last night and to be honest, United were not too good in the first half of a game that could have been Ole's last if it all went wrong again.
"What Solskjaer has on his side this season is some wonderful players, especially in attacking positions, who can turn a game with a moment of magic."
