Man Utd boss Solskjaer admits admiration for Bournemouth striker King

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has spoken of his admiration for Josh King.

The Bournemouth striker has been linked with a return to United since Solskjaer's appointment.

On facing King today, he said: "You've got to be concentrated. Josh is strong and quick, with loads of energy about him, so you've just got to be aware of him. Josh has really developed since I had him in the Reserves here.

"It's great to see him having such a great career. He's doing well for Norway, so back home he's one of the few that we can really enjoy watching in the Premier League! But I hope the Norwegians won't enjoy watching him in this game, because hopefully we can stop him."
