Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says he sees in the current team the potential to live to the club's history.

United prepare to host Liverpool this weekend.

“For them, it's a big game," he said. “For us, it's a big game. We want to be among the top four. We're playing Liverpool and we know how big that is for Manchester United, for the staff, for the supporters. We're just looking forward to another challenge for this team.

"We want to build this team where it's worthy of Manchester United's history. It's another step on if we can do that home. Tottenham, Arsenal and Chelsea, away, it was fantastic to win those three away games but now we need to perform at home as well.

“It's not about pride. I feel we've taken a few steps in the right direction in that process of becoming what we want to become - that we are a team that challenges higher up the league. Onto the next one, because I never look back. I just want to see forward."
