Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is still considered the favourite to become caretaker head coach of Manchester United for the remainder of the season.
Manchester World were the first outlet to reveal this week that Solskjaer would jump at the opportunity to return to his former club after the sacking of Ruben Amorim. The Norwegian has already proved he has what it takes to lift the spirits at Old Trafford and he would relish the opportunity to put smiles back on faces again.
United have reverted to a 4-3-2-1 formation under interim Darren Fletcher and would be expected to play a similar style under the guidance of Solskjaer. Here is a look at how we think United would line up if Solskjaer does return to Old Trafford for the rest of the campaign.
