'He Has Been A Really Good Signing' - Ex-Palace Star Sings Praises Of Solskjaer For Ighalo Capture
Published: March 12, 2020Former Crystal Palace striker Clinton Morrison had nothing but praise for Norwegian football tactician Ole Gunnar Solskjaer following Manchester United's signing of Odion Ighalo in the January transfer window.
Since the former Nigeria international has been at the Red Devils, he has been influential despite his limited playing opportunities and has three goals in 233 minutes of action.
"Special mention as well Ighalo. A lot of people dired when he came in. He has been really good, small game time that he has had, he's made the difference, he has scored goals," Morrison said on Sky Sports The Debate.
"He comes on against Manchester City, he leads the line, that's what you want your center forwards to do so I think he has been a really good signing.
"Lowe is right, you have to give huge credit to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. He's done well, a lot of people were calling for him he shouldn't be at that club, he's only the manager of the club because he's a legend at the football club. He has brought in good players....."
