No, I don’t start to do that. I have good communication all the time with the club, we’re very upfront and honest about the situation. I work for Man Utd and want the best for Man Utd and while I’m here I’ll do what I can to improve this, and that’s going back to what we started to look like,” Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said.

However, United fans do not feel the same way about their club legend. There was huge outrage on Twitter as United are now languishing in the sixth spot and could fall as low as 10th in the Premier League table after 11 games.

The Norwegian also added that his squad was doing much better a little while ago, during the start of the season. United finished second in the Premier League last season after a late burst from the Reds. However, Ole did add that he expects the entire squad to do better after they come back from the international break.

I’m sure when we come back, the players will be fresh in their mind after internationals. The demands on me and the players are going to be high, the expectations,” he added.

How long do you think Ole will last at the helm of Manchester United?
