Greenwood reveals how Solskjaer has told him 'many times' about 1999 super-sub heroics

Mason Greenwood is happy to be a super sub for Manchester United when required, with the 19-year-old having the perfect mentor for that role in 1999 Treble winner Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

A highly-rated graduate of the Old Trafford academy system admits that he has heard the story of his manager's heroics in a thrilling Champions League final clash with Bayern Munich "many times".

He is now in the process of trying to create his own legacy with the Red Devils, with that quest often requiring him to provide similar levels of inspiration from the bench.
