Ole Gunnar Solskjaer Fearful Liverpool Defeat 'Could Cost Him Man Utd Job'

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is reported to fear that defeat against Liverpool could cost him his job.

Since taking the manager job on a permanent basis, Solskjaer has struggled to pick up wins with United, who fell to 12th in the Premier League after Sunday's 1-0 defeat to Newcastle United. Because of their poor form, many fans have called for the boss to be sacked.

According to the Daily Mail, Solskjaer is fearful that an emphatic loss to Liverpool after the international break could cost him his job, with executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward facing intense pressure to part ways with the Norwegian.
