Manchester United midfielder Fred says it's no secret manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has had to battle doubters.
Fred says Solskjaer was always going to be under extreme scrutiny in the Old Trafford hotseat - but says he is becoming a better manager every day.
“With each passing day, you see his evolution," Fred told ESPN Brazil. "I really like to see him here. I think there will always be distrust.
"You being in a big club like this one, a lot of people want to see you badly, there's no way. But you have to stay strong and I think he has a good head."
Fred added: "He was a player, he's been on this side.
"So he knows how to deal with us. He talks a lot with the players. I think this is what sets him apart.
"He's always playing with us, supporting us, helping us in positioning, on a daily basis. He's a guy who's always close and this is very important for the player."
