The player Solskjaer looks up to for improved form will surprise you

English Premier League outfit Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has backed Brazilian international Fred to improve and get back to his best again.

This he said after giving the hint that he the star player could be handed a role in Wednesday’s clash against Crystal Palace as they seek to push for a top-four finish before the end of the season.

Fred, who joined the Red Devils in the summer from Shakhtar Donetsk in a big money move has not found his form as he is being relegated to bench roles but that could be turned around now that he would be having the opportunity.

The Red Devils boss is expected to be without 10 players in the game which makes room for the Brazilian to make a name for himself and he is being backed by the manager.

Ole Gunnar has stated that Fred only needs time to settle in the team, recalling that it took Juan Sebastian Veron a whole lot of time to settle down despite being a great player.

However, the Red Devils are confident Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will take his chances and get firing again as the player he was known for before his signature.
