When I was at University, a tutor who taught me the concept of "Tom Hanks Intelligent", which is "someone who is exactly smart enough to get themselves out of a situation they were silly enough to get themselves into."
Audiences likes heroes like this because they are smart without being condescending and have a scrappy charm to them.

Even if they are annoying in their refusal to learn, you root for "Tom Hanks Intelligent" characters because you know deep down, they are trying their best.
Writers like "Tom Hanks Intelligent" characters because if you get it right, you can create an affable character who can keep surprising even if the same problems keep arising.

They make for good television.
Anyway. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is approaching his 2 year anniversary at #MUFC soon and loads of people (myself included) describe him as a nice man who they want to succeed.
