The 46-year-old fans' favourite has overseen a dramatic transformation since being named caretaker boss in December.
Solskjaer has brought smiles and a swagger back to a United side that had been toiling under divisive former manager Jose Mourinho. The Norwegian has overseen 14 wins from his 19 games in charge, reviving top-four hopes while progressing to the quarter-finals of the Champions League with a jaw-dropping win at Paris St Germain.
Solskjaer's work over the last three months has seen the interim role turn into a permanent job, with the 1999 treble hero signing a three-year deal at Old Trafford on Thursday.
This is how he did it.
