Solskjaer admits Manchester United at 'rock bottom' but insists he's still the right man for the job

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has acknowledged that Manchester United are at "rock bottom" following their 5-0 defeat to Liverpool - but the Norwegian says that he and his team have "come too far as a group" to throw in the towel.

Mohamed Salah's history-making hat-trick, along with goals for Naby Keita and Diogo Jota and a red card for Paul Pogba, delivered a match to forget for the Red Devils against their rivals at Old Trafford.

But while United's prospects of an unlikely title charge are in serious trouble, Solskjaer still believes that he is the right man for the job - though he is under no illusions that his side are in a particularly bad spot.
