Manchester United legend Eric Cantona believes the decision to replace Jose Mourinho with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer should have happened “a long time ago”, with it painful to see the club slipping behind arch-rivals Manchester City and Liverpool.
The Red Devils stumbled out of the blocks in 2018-19 and wobbled their way through to December before the decision was finally taken to make a change in the dugout.
Former favourite Solskjaer has made an immediate impact, collecting 11 wins from 13 games, and Cantona feels those at Old Trafford left it too long to part with a coach who was clearly not delivering.
