"The speculation is there for a reason because he's done well."But it's not my job to rate different managers. My focus is on me and my team." United have not missed a beat since Solskjaer arrived last month, the Red Devils outclassing Cardiff City, Huddersfield Town, Newcastle United and Bournemouth to move within three points of fifth-placed Arsenal.  The Red Devils also defeated Reading in the third round of the FA Cup last week.United will come up against a Tottenham side fighting for the title in third position and boasting star England striker Harry Kane.Kane has amassed 14 Premier League goals this season – level with Arsenal's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang at the top of the division's scoring charts – while he has found the back of the net in each of the past six games across all competitions. "He's not bad, is he? Solskjaer said. "He's a fantastic goalscorer. One of the best in the world to play up there."Then again, I've got a couple as well who I'm happy to work with. He's also a top, top professional. I'm sure whoever plays with him and trains with him can talk more about him. "But from the outside he's a fantastic finisher. He never misses chances really so let's make sure he doesn't get any against us."</blockquote>
