He had been a wonderful servant to the Manchester United team, scoring important goals off the bench consistently. And Solskjaer understands that team work is the most important facet of football. He also expects the same from his squad now, saying that he wants his men to be team players:

When you’re at Manchester United, there are a set of demands and one is to be a team player and I don’t think anyone has been on the bench more than me! That’s all my comeback to players, you might come on make an impact.

He also stated his desire to communicate with his players well to get the best out of them:

My job is to help the players, make them grasp the opportunity, they all wanna be part of Manchester United, I’m here to help them, help the team, down to man management
I had the best manager as a player and coach to deal with players and it’s about communication, I’ll sit down and speak to the ones not playing.

He also expressed his desire to get the best out of players like Pogba by communicating with them as well as showing them a picture of how he wants them to play.

As such, after almost two and a half season of Mourinho, it would be nice to see how Pogba plays for a manager who wants to believe in him.
