Paul Pogba hopes Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is given the Manchester United manager ’s job on a permanent basis after the Norwegian turned the club’ s fortunes around .
The former United striker has transformed the mood and results at Old Trafford , leading the club into the Champions League quarter -finals and lifting them into contention for a top -four finish in the Premier League .
When Solskjaer was given the role following the departure of Jose Mourinho in December it was widely assumed he was merely keeping the seat warm for a bigger managerial name but his success has led to a clamour for the appointment to be made full -time and midfielder Pogba has now added his voice .
“ Of course we want him to stay ,” the France midfielder told Sky Sports . “The results have been great . I have a great relationship with him , he has a great relationship with the players .

“When a player is happy , he wants to keep being happy . Solskjaer deserves it. He knows the club, he knows everything about the club.
“He is a really happy coach that gave confidence back to the players . This gave us the freedom to play and enjoy football again because maybe we lost that with the results that we had before.”
It is a striking contrast to the final months of Mourinho ’s reign , with Pogba the player who was repeatedly claimed to be at odds with the Portuguese.
He declined to elaborate , saying only , “Maybe we lost confidence , maybe things went wrong. A lot of talking outside that we weren ’t used to.
“I don’ t like to talk about the past. I like to talk about the future because that ’s what matters . We are better now and the results have been brilliant .”
Despite their good run , United were beaten by Wolves in the FA Cup quarter -finals on Saturday , a week after losing to Arsenal in the Premier League — the only two domestic defeats since Solskjaer replaced Mourinho in December .
