Man Utd manager Solskjaer claims Varane oozed class in victory over Wolves

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes Raphael Varane oozed class against Wolves on Sunday.

The Frenchman made his first start as United ran out 1-0 winners at Molineux.

"This was 'welcome to the Premier League' – tempo, hustle bustle, tackle, have to defend counter attacks," said Ole, when asked about Varane in his post-match press conference.

"Top, top performance. He's good in the air, he's so composed on the ball and he's so experienced and nothing phases him."

"He was good in the dressing room before the game, half-time and so I'm delighted with his performance. I thought he showed his class."
