Thanks to the margin of victory against the Royals, Solskjaer has become the first top-flight manager since 1888 – the league’s debut campaign – to not only win all five of his first matches in charge but win them by at least two goals.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's first five games

  1. Cardiff 1-5 Manchester United
  2. Manchester United 3-1 Huddersfield Town
  3. Manchester United 4-1 Bournemouth
  4. Newcastle United 0-2 Manchester United
  5. Manchester United 2-0 Reading
According to Bill Edgar in The Times, no other managers have achieved more than three two-goal margin triumphs and only three have managed to complete this feat.Preston North End boss William Sudell (1888), Sheffield Wednesday manager Vic Buckingham (1961), and Leicester City caretaker manager Craig Shakespeare (2017) are the men to have done this. Solskjaer may have to go some if he is to make it six on the trot though as they face Tottenham Hotspur next at Wembley on Sunday in the Premier League.
