Manchester United reportedly considered appointing former coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer before they hired Ruben Amorim last November. The Portuguese coach was brought in from Sporting CP as United parted ways with Erik ten Hag after a poor start to the 2024-25 campaign. Solskjaer managed the Red Devils for three years before being dismissed in November 2021.

Phil Jones has ranked a sacked Manchester United manager above Liverpool boss Arne Slot, Tottenham's Thomas Frank and current Red Devils head coach Ruben Amorim. Jones, a former United star who made 229 appearances for the club, has surprisingly revealed he considers Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to be better than all three of those managers, despite the Norwegian failing to win a trophy during his reign at Old Trafford.

Erling Haaland scripted more history with his brace against Burnley on Saturday as he beat former Manchester United star Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's record. The Norwegian goal machine starred with two goals and an assist as City thrashed Burnley 5-1 at home. The brace took Haaland's tally to nine goals this season in seven matches across all competitions.

Manchester United's downfall under Ruben Amorim looks no closer to halting with the Red Devils enduring their worst start in 33 years. Fans of the 20-time Premier League champions are urging the club to re-sign former coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after showing proof that the Norwegian manager was sacked prematurely in 2021.

Ruben Amorim is under mounting pressure to keep his job at Manchester United. The Portuguese coach has overseen the club's worst start to a Premier League season for 33 years, and has faced widespread criticism for his rigid tactics, with a £200m summer spending spree doing little to improve the Red Devils' fortunes.
