Man Utd legend Neville: Solskjaer one defeat away from trouble

Manchester United legend Gary Neville insists Ole Gunnar Solskjaer remains under pressure

Solskjaer had been the subjected to speculation over his future at Old Trafford after United's worst ever start to a Premier League campaign, but a string of good results has since reduced some of the pressure on the Norwegian.

“As a United fan, I went into the Liverpool game panicking," Neville told talkSPORT before the cup win over Chelsea.

“I was thinking this could be a bad day, this could get moody in the stadium, Liverpool are a great team and they could go 3-0 up – but United played really well.

“Ole had been questioned tactically but he got it right on the day and that was the start of this little run they're on, beating Partizan and then the Norwich win was big.

“So there has been a mini revival, but I don't think Ole will be sat comfortable in his chair. I think he realises he is one game away from the clouds circling again."
