Solskjaer talks up 'big week' for Man Utd ahead of QPR friendly

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says Manchester United have a big week ahead of them.

The Red Devils have just arrived in Surrey, in the south of England, for a training camp ahead of next weekend's friendly against QPR.

"It's fantastic to be here," Solskjaer told MUTV. "The facilities are great and we're together, that's the main thing for that bonding.

"We all eat together and spend time with each other and it's a chance to really do some good work and really put down a foundation for the rest of the season for these boys, and men some of them! [Smiles]

"It's a decision we made. Of course, we drive up the road and have great facilities at Carrington, but it is special to have that pre-season tour feeling.

"The intensity of training will be good.It's always great when you get through a hard week of training and then maybe the weather cools down a little bit and you feel so much stronger as a player and you feel you can run more.

"It's an important week for us."
