Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes that after having robbed Chelsea of Premiership glory by retaining the Premier League title, Manchester United will also be able to do the same in the Champions League when they meet in Moscow in the Champions League Final.

The Norwegian striker, who was part of the treble winning Man United side in 1999, has asked the Red Devils to believe in their potential and lift the Champions League title.

"This will hopefully be the start of something more than we achieved," he says. "The 1999 team achieved it once. It was a fantastic feeling. The memories of that night stick with you forever. I wanted to experience more of them and believed we could. Now nine years have passed before the club could get back to a final.

"This side can win it and hopefully start something bigger,” he told the Manchester Evening News. “You want the players to get the feeling that this is where we want to be every year. Hopefully it will inspire them and motivate them to believe what they really can achieve because I believe this team and these players can achieve a lot more.”

“If you give Cristiano and Wayne, for instance, the taste of what it's like to win the Champions League, they will have the impetus to win it again and again.

"I think this team could go on to win more Champions Leagues than us in 1999 because of the talent and the age of the players.”
