Former Crystal Palace owner Simon Jordan has slammed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his appointment as Manchester United caretaker manager.

Jordan insists the on-loan Molde coach doesn't deserve the job.

He told talkSPORT: “Solskjaer can't lose.

“He was always going to walk in the door, he was always going to pick the big players, he's not going to make any unpopular decisions and he's not going to have any confrontation, so all of the players who felt wronged or maligned or not as important as they'd like to be are not going to have that on their toes anymore.

“This is all about the players, it's all about someone walking into an environment simply being able to lighten the mood, and if that's worth £2million or £3million for six months, I don't know what to say about football.

“But it's no surprise to me they beat Cardiff, it's no surprise to me they beat Huddersfield, it's no surprise to me that Pogba has got his boots on – none of it was a surprise to me.

“The next culprit to pop over the horizon will be [Alexis] Sanchez, he'll start to play now because they're all getting what they want.

“I think Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is no tactical genius, he isn't doing anything that anybody with half a brain who understands football couldn't do, which is deliver good news.

“These kids in this dressing room only want good news, they don't want reality or want their noses put out of joint.

“The worst thing that could happen to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Manchester United is if he gets the job long-term.

“Like what happened to Roberto Di Matteo at Chelsea, if he wins anything of significance and has to be kept there against the real wishes of the club and then gets taken out later, that would be the worst thing for both him and the club."
