Same! I can't recall the last one we made that was an instant success. Chicharito?

It's been big in Sweden but I just checked a Norwegian newspaper's website, front page: Picture of Solskjær celebrating after a goal with the caption saying: Has got the biggest job in football.
No i'm not.

Think we should have waited till the end of the season personally but i wish him all the best.
Hopefully with Zidane going to Madrid that means Poch can stay with Spurs a little longer just incase Ole doesnt work out.

Well done Ole, keep up the good work.
Well deserved, he's far exceeded any expectations I had of him. All the players are happy, there was no other choice really. Now let's back him and see what he can do.
Soo Happy 
Now back him in the summer. Lets make Utd great again!

I'm all up for it!!
Woo hoo! Thrilling! I loved Ole as a player and I’m so happy he’s been given this chance. This is my first post here and I’m glad it’s to congratulate Ole. Well done!
He'd eat up Molde's entire yearly budget (£900k) within a couple of weeks.
Nor am I
I actually don't mind us paying as a part of good will
And you get 2 dogs and a piano for free
Damn you @Dwazza Gunnar Solskjær
Yea I can't see any benefit of announcing it now. Tell him in private he's got it and start planning for next season.
Delighted by this news - really glad it was done now to allow us a decent planning session for recruitment, and also off season prep!
Molde have also said it was his dream since he joined them in 2011.
Congratulations Ole and thank you for bringing back attractive football to United.
I also was surprised at the timing, was scrolling through the internet home page at work and saw it very surprised they've announced it now however I can sort of see sense as itll stop all the speculation and Ole can start to prepare for the transfer window and put plans in place for the signings he'd like to get.
I'm not sure, I hope with a proper pre season we can go back to the football he wanted to play when he first arrived, hopefully hes only being restricted by injuries and fitness levels. I really want him to succeed as he's so likeable and clearly loves United, his lack of experience worries me most but hopefully he's a quick learner plus the players (currently!) All seem to like him some of what he says is so Manchester United as well.
However we absolutely must back him in the transfer window and I just hope he's not "too nice" about clearing out the deadwood.
I wonder if we've done it now to try and get another new manager bounce for the run in?
I thought this was a very good article:

Liverpool supporter I know is delighted says it's a great appointment and he is rubbish and will have no pulling power in the transfer market.. wouldn't it be funny if he does better than Klopp who he wouldn't criticise unless they failed to get in the top 4

You've not actually said why it's a huge gamble, just that it would bad for us if he fails. Yeah no shit, it would also be very bad for us if we appoint Pochettino and he fails. There's no new insight there.
Goodwill, not a fecking disaster. Would be the footballing equivalent of sending the Red Cross used nappies.
Damn you @Dwazza Gunnar Solskjær
Would you be happy if we decided not to give him a contract and brought back Moyes? Honest question.
A used nappy would be more useful on the pitch...
Just realised that Lingard shopped himself into that picture!
Love how they call him the boss and gaffer.
Can't wait for the next presser
Isn't his presser later? Who'll give me some odds on him using the word 'buzzing' at some point?
Pretty sure Woodward said we would be getting one when Mourinho left. Since then, there has only been speculation.
I think he's having an unveiling as permanent manager at 16:00 or 17:00?
EDIT: It's at 16:00
Is it a bit strange alright timing wise but maybe the club felt it would give us a second new manager bounce for the final stretch.
Great
What sort of money is he on?
Think our official twitter should relax with the use of the word "wheel". It is getting a bit ott now.

We were paying Fergie more than the highest paid player at the club but I very much doubt we still do that. Probably the bottom end of what manager get paid at big clubs: £100k a week?

So the entire coaching staff remain with Ole for the next 3 seasons.
Great decision all round.
