Since being given the manager’s role on a permanent basis, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has overseen a torrid run suffering 7 losses from their last 9 matches in all competitions. Their most recent, a 2-0 derby day defeat to Manchester City – their third in-a-row - leaves their European ambitions hanging by a thread.
