Manchester United’s resurgence in the Premier League under interim boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been immense, and the Red Devils even leapfrogged Chelsea into the top four last weekend.
In December, Manchester United were more than 10 points adrift of the top four, but the Norwegian’s arrival has seen them win all but one Premier League game since Mourinho’s departure.
Now, the Red Devils seem like the real deal and will take some stopping in the coming months, and might even play a major role in Manchester City and Liverpool’s title tussle.
With 12 games remaining in the Premier League, here are three reasons why Manchester United will finish above Chelsea.
Manchester United have finally found an identity
After Louis van Gaal and Jose Mourinho, Solskjaer’s arrival has been a breath of fresh air as it seems like the players have been unshackled.
Although United were second best against PSG, the side have got the job done with authority in the league.
While many presumed that early few wins under Solskjaer came against the weaker teams, wins against Tottenham and Leicester show that the Red Devils’ form is no fluke.
The likes of Marcus Rashford and Paul Pogba, who often left a lot to be desired during the Mourinho era, have suddenly found their feet as the attacking approach has worked well for the team.
