While Manchester United were reigning the late 90s of the football world, here Chicago Bulls were doing just the same in the NBA. Back in the 1998-99 season, The Red Devils won the treble and became the first English team to achieve the feat.

Sir Alex Ferguson was their manager then. Roy Keane-led United were on a roll and the early 00s saw their best phase as a franchise. The likes of David Beckham and Solskjaer himself were part of that star-studded team.

Michael Jordan-led Chicago Bulls of the 90s have similarities with Man Utd

Solskjaer talked to ‘Football Focus’ and gave his take on the crucial time during the pandemic.

“You don’t put [anything] on hold. You always think football, it never stops, and if you’re in the job or not in the job, if you’ve been bitten by the football bug you’re always going to spend time on it. I don’t think I’ve been different to anyone else. You watch TV, you watch series, you’ve got to switch off from football.”
