“It’s special when you’re a coach or a manager doing it with your staff and players.
“The dressing room in there was absolutely unbelievable, just to see the whole club together with the owners, ex-managers, ex-players. Great atmosphere.”
Alex Ferguson, Eric Cantona and co-owner Avram Glazer were among those who visited the players in the dressing room to celebrate with them.
SolsjkSol added:
“I keep doing this job as best as I can every single day and let’s see where it takes us,” he said.
“It’s been a fantastic time with the players and the staff I’ve got working with me. I’m going to enjoy this job as long as I’ve got it.
“If it’s another two or three months, however long it is, I’m going to enjoy it, I’m going to smile.”
