Edinson Cavani was a fan favourite even before joining up with Manchester United on a free at Old Trafford from PSG.
The Uruguayan striker was extremely prolific in France and fans expected that immediate impact in their starting XI but it hasn’t worked like that.
Ole says it’s not all bad news though as the forward has a serious influence in the dressing room and even reminds the United boss of a legendary striker that he played with in the past in Manchester.
The great Teddy Sheringham who play 152 games with United in the late 90s and scored 46 goals in all competitions.
🗣"I learnt a lot from him (Sheringham) and he (Cavani) has come in and been a similar influence"

Ole’s side have seen an big boost lately with United now second in the League, one point behind Manchester City and now we may know who the difference maker is behind the curtains,
Do you think Cavani has been the big difference? Is he spurring the United team one?
