Sir Alex delight at Reserves titleSir Alex Ferguson has praised the work done by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Warren Joyce and the Reserves players after United were crowned Premier Reserve League North champions on Tuesday night.
Fellow challengers Liverpool lost to Everton, meaning they cannot now catch leaders United, who have won the trophy for the first time in four years.
Sir Alex praised Solskjaer and Joyce for what is a demanding role, managing an ever-changing squad with players going out on loan or being called up to the first-team.
"I'd like to say congratulations to Ole and Warren," the boss told ManUtd.com. "They've done a great job.
"Whenever we’ve appointed a new Reserve team coach, I’ve always explained to them what a difficult job it is because it’s subject to what I need. I may pull out three or four players from a training session or I might say, ‘these players can’t play for you on Thursday because they’re on standby for me on Saturday'. So it’s a difficult job."
There are also a number of emerging young talents in the Reds' second string that have caught the manager's eye.
"Some of the players have done very well," he added. "For example, in the 1-0 win against Liverpool, the back four were absolutely brilliant, they really did well. One or two younger players are developing quite well. Gabriel Obertan scored an unbelievable goal.
"Oliver Norwood and Corry Evans do really well and have a good attitude towards the game. That’s an important thing and Ole and Warren have maintained that attitude right through the team." [end story]
I'm a huge Ole fan and can't think of a nicer, more professional, manager to deserve this! His task is monumental with the constant influx of players. Well done, OGS!

In other news, the U-18s at United are six points clear at the top of their table and look to have a lock on their championship as well! Well done, Baby Reds!
