'They don't want the manager': Alan Shearer claims Man United stars have 'lost respect' for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after the Watford defeat and SLAMS him for having 'no plan or no tactics' before the Norwegian is sacked

Alan Shearer has ripped into Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after Manchester United's 4-1 defeat to Watford, claiming that players lost respect for him before the club sacked him as manager on Sunday morning.

The Red Devils were blown away by lowly Watford thanks to two goals in each half by the Hornets, in a result which has now cost the Norwegian his job.

United goalkeeper David de Gea branded his side's display as 'embarrassing' and claimed 'we don't know what to do with the ball' - a statement which Shearer used to highlight how bad things have got at Old Trafford.
