Speaking during a forum with Scandinavian supporters' club, United-Supporteren, Solskjaer said he had known the staff through the years since he was a player and now found it a little odd to be addressed by who he was.

"[Carrington receptionist] Kath was the first person I saw when I came here," he said.
"Then I met the staff who've been here since I was a player. They started calling me 'boss.' I told them: 'Stop that. My name is Ole. Call me Ole'. We've worked together and known each other for so many years. I didn't want them to call me boss," he added.

Upon his return as manager in December, the United legend gifted the club's receptionist of 50 years Kath Phipps a bar of Norwegian chocolate.

His relatively polite approach at Old Trafford has seen the dressing room emerge more united and happy.
