Coach Solskjaer ready to be back at Old Trafford

London, Dec 25 (IANS) After a 5-1 demolition of Cardiff, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Manchester United new coach, is looking forward to back-to-back wins at Old Trafford on Wednesday against Huddersfield.

"I'm looking forward to it and I think the boys are looking forward to playing at Old Trafford," Solskjaer said on Tuesday adding: "That's the key, we should be looking forward to playing there."

Saturday's five goals in one Premier League game was the first in five years for the United and the back-to-back league wins were not achieved by more than four coaches in United's history, reports Xinhua news agency.

"Of course you try to keep your emotion in check because I'm there to do a job, I've got to be focused," Solskjaer said.

The former striker, who served for the United for 11 seasons, took over the position on December 19 after Jose Mourinho was fired and his contract was only promised to the end of the season.

The United won just five of 12 home matches in all competitions this season and are ranked sixth in the league.
