It is about taking your chances when you get them.
"It's a real privilege to have this opportunity and be given this opportunity".
Since replacing the Portuguese in December, Solskjaer has won his first six games as United manager, a club record, and Hughton said the Norwegian deserved credit for turning things around at Old Trafford.
"So, he's champing at the bit, I have to say".
Martial's future at Old Trafford was far from certain under Mourinho, who infamously pushed for the forward's exit last summer - something that repulsed a significant proportion of the United fan base, left aghast that one of their best players was being shown the door so flippantly.

"You've just got to tip your hat off to him and his coaching staff that have done just an wonderful job". Open-minded about his next destination, he is enjoying the moment with United and knows where he wants to be a year from now.
"There are players there coming through and Mason is one of them", said Solskjaer. "There are the three who play the most but then you've got Rom, you've got Juan [Mata], you've got Alexis [Sanchez], so I've got a front six I can rotate and Rom is definitely going to be playing games".
