AS Roma fans are up in arms against Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and as per various reports, there are now posters against the Norwegian manager.
Man United face AS Roma in the Europa League semi-final, the first leg of which is scheduled to be played on Thursday at Old Trafford. And speaking ahead of this game, Solskjaer made a very candid but honest statement regarding the Italian side.
He had told BT Sport: “I don’t know them and I haven’t seen them play. Roma defends well, as Italians always do of course.”
This comment surely has not gone down too well with the AS Roma fans with reports claiming that anti-Ole posters have now popped up.
According to a Twitter account @UtdDistrict: “Roma fans have put up posters of Solskjær, quoting “I don’t know them and I haven’t seen them play.”
“Roma fans feel that Solskjær and mufc are “dismissing” them as an opponent. [La Roma24 via @Sport_Witness]
“The bottom of the poster reads ‘make sure he remembers us.'”

This would have boiled up into a really big issue but unfortunately, fans are not allowed inside the stadiums so no matter how much the AS Roma fans scream and shout, their voices will not affect the players on the pitch.
Also, the Italian side have not been in the best of forms this season and in their previous five league matches, managing to pick up just a single win.
Also, their defensive record is not that great either as they have conceded 51 goals in the Serie A this season, the most amongst the top ten Italian clubs.
