Ever since Jose Mourinho's term as Manchester United manager came to an end, it has been a renaissance for the Red Devils. They have been unbeaten in all competitions, during which they also beat Tottenham Hotspur at Wembley and Arsenal at the Emirates in the Premier League and FA Cup respectively.
The upturn in form has helped us to witness a rejuvenated Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford, both of whom were sorely out of form and unappreciated under Mourinho. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has breathed new life at the Theater Of Dreams and the fans are finally enjoying an attacking brand of football after three previous managers preferring more pragmatic ways, which left them with a sour taste.
That being said, let's take a look at 5 players who have improved the most under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at the helm.

#5 Ander Herrera
Ander Herrera, the player who won United's player of the year in 2016/17 campaign, had failed to regain his form ever since that campaign and was left to warm the bench, with Belgian international Marouane Fellaini preferred over the Spanish international.
Under the Norwegian manager, Ander has scored 1 and assisted a further 2 more goals, more than he did under Mourinho and also has played significantly more minutes.
With the arrival of Solskjaer, Herrera was given another opportunity to prove his worth and that he did, to perfection one might say. But the revival of the Spaniard has left the new signing Fred warming the benches and it looks like the Brazilian may leave United come summer.
With a contract extension pending, it is about time for Man United board to do all they can to secure the Spaniard for a few more years to come, as he has a lot more to offer to this United team if Solskjaer or anybody else ends up getting the job come summer.
#4 Anthony Martial
Anthony Martial recently signed a deal that keeps him at Manchester United till 2024 and the club are finally doing all they can to keep their star players from leaving. The Frenchman enjoyed a good run even under Jose Mourinho this season as he was scoring goals for fun under the Portuguese manager, keeping United in the game every now and then.
Ever since the Special One's sacking, Martial hasn't scored as many goals as he did under the Portuguese but he has been a vital cog of the current side and has been very influential in his link-up play, partnering well with Luke Shaw and Pogba down the left.
With the contracts tied up, it is time for the fans to rejoice the fact that they can enjoy Tony for 5 more years, which is exactly what they had wanted.
#3 Victor Lindelof
Victor Lindelof signed last season but didn't have the best of starts to life in the Premier League, having a tough time getting used to the physicality of the league. As a result, he made very significant mistakes which cost United dearly.
But the continued good performances of Lindelof in recent games has helped him win over the United faithful. He has sealed his place in the starting XI for the foreseeable future. With another additional centre-back addition, United can have a formidable defence to challenge for trophies again.
Under Ole, the Swede has continued to improve his form and has surely made an impact in what is a weak United defence alongside Phil Jones and Eric Bailly.
But their is still scope of improvement for Lindelof and if the things remains the same they are now then Lindelof will turn into one of the best defenders
#2 Marcus Rashford
Marcus Rashford was criticized by the media and Jose Mourinho for his lacklustre performances at the start of the season as he missed many easy chances.
Under Mourinho, Rashford had scored 3 goals and assisted 5 more. Under Ole, he has scored 6 an assisted 2 more, finding his rhythm for United.
Rashford has been on fire scoring goals at will and has also been a thorn at the opposition defence. His form has been so good that he has benched Romelu Lukaku to a bit-part role and is making a statement for himself to start ahead of the big Belgian.
With Rashford's role at Man United now clear as day, it may seem like the 21-year-old might continue his contract talks and probably sign a long term deal which will keep him at his boyhood club for a long term at the club.
#1 Paul Pogba
Paul Pogba has looked like a man with a mission ever since the arrival of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at Old Trafford. He is proving his critics and haters wrong and making a case for being one of the best players in the league with his current turn of form.
The Frenchman has been involved in 10 goals in 7 games under Ole Solskjaer and is stamping his authority as the main man at Manchester United. These are just the glimpses of what he can do when given the freedom to attack and also not played in a conservative role.
With the talents of Pogba, Rashford, Martial, Lukaku and Sanchez in attack United are one of the best attacking sides in all of Europe and can mount a huge title challenge if they continue to play the same way next season.
