Neville backs Solskjaer's Man Utd appointment: If he wins the Champions League he'll get it full-time!

With Jose Mourinho out the door, the next man in the hotseat at Old Trafford has to understand the club, according to their former captain

Former Manchester United striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer would be an ideal choice to “steady the ship” and “bring people together” at Old Trafford says ex-teammate Gary Neville.

The Red Devils parted ways with Jose Mourinho on Tuesday following a 3-1 loss to Liverpool on Sunday that effectively ended already slim Premier League title hopes.

The club subsequently stated that an external candidate would take the reins until the end of the season while the hunt for a permanent replacement commences and a prematurely published piece on United’s official website all-but-confirmed that it would be Norwegian forward Solskjaer.
