ODION IGHALO IS A NATURAL STRIKER, SAYS SOLSKJAER
Manchester United coach, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has described Nigerian forward, Odion Ighalo as a “natural striker.” He made the remark after a 5-0 win over Club Brugge in the Europa League on Thursday.
“As a fellow striker myself, I know how important that first goal is and he’s been close a couple of times,” Solskjaer, whose side were 6-1 winners on aggregate, told reporters.
“You can see he sniffs goals, he wants to be there, where it sometimes hurts.
“That goal, he was sharp in his head and as that ball is played over to Juan, he spins and was on the six-yard line when Juan puts it there. That’s a natural striker.”
