Man Utd are in a sweet honeymoon period with Solskjaer. The team has won three games in a row with a fiery attacking style. This excellent start has seen Solskjaer join the legendary Matt Busby and his predecessor Mourinho.
Matt Busby and Mourinho both won their first three games in charge of Man Utd, but neither impressed as much as Solskjaer. Under Matt Busby, Man Utd scored eight goals in their first three games, while Mourinho's team only scored six.
A 4-1 win over Bournemouth saw Man Utd score 12 goals in three games under Solskjaer. This is also the first time Man Utd have scored 12 goals in three consecutive games in all competitions since December 21 to December 31, 2011.
Midfielder Paul Pogba has been instrumental in Solskjaer's early success, directly involved in seven of the 12 goals. The Frenchman has transformed with four goals and three assists. In his previous 14 Premier League games, Pogba has scored just three goals under Mourinho.
