before we signed him he was a class player. Remember Euro 96.

I think Solksjaer edges it but he will never get the true respect he deserves as he was always considered the super sub and he was so much more than that

Took me a few seconds to remember Teddy even wearing the red shirt. I think of him as a tottenham player mostly. Ole is a united legend to me though!

[Zense_United]

OLE is great on the substitution and as well as teddy but i cant compare, both of them are legend!

I'd have to go for Ole.

He's the model professional on and off the pitch.

When he came on you always knew he was gonna
get us a goal or come pretty damn close.

When he was in a shooting poition he always hit the
target and either scored or forced the goalkeeper to
make a save.

Not often did you see an Ole shot go wide or over.

He also played on the right wing or us for a while
where he kept Beckham out of the team for a bit.

He was a great crosser of the ball and was still
chipping in with goals too. Both were fantasic
players but for me, Ole is number one.

i would have to say sheringham when you consider their whole carear.teddy performed at every level and is the most accomplished english striker from the last 20 years , he never had much speed but saw things happening before all others and scored a good percentage as well.he was way past his best when he came to utd and still managed to make his mark ,thats top quality by my reckoning.

Perfect post. Thread can now be closed

For us OGS was much better than Teddy, but I think if you look at both players entire career then I think Teddy edges it.

Ole is more important to United obviously but in their prime,
Teddy was the better player for me.

i agree with you
teddy at his prime was one of the best strikers in the world
teddy is more complete footballer than ole
but solskjaer is better finisher and more lethal
both are super great legends

[barrybowtell]

to be honest. it has to be sheringham, olle was just a good sub @ best

Interesting it's about 50/50. It is a pity that Solskjaer was injured for so long and it was also a pity for him that the Cole/Yorke partnership was so immense.
