Bournemouth striker King: Ole was great for me

Bournemouth striker Josh King says he remains close to Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

King proved the matchwinner against his old club on Saturday.

"For me, it's a bit extra special scoring against my former club and some of my former teammates and former manager," King admitted after the game.

"I know Ole quite well, he gave me a chance in the reserves. I always speak with him when I see with him, he was my manager for two years and there's a few United lads I still speak to.

"Ole was great for me, I had a great spell in the reserves and I think Ole would confirm that."
