Man Utd boss Solskjaer: I don't buy to protect my job

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says he is "forthright" with executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward over desired transfer targets.

Solskjaer, 46, has been urged to sign players by former United defender Gary Neville in order to "protect himself".

But Solskjaer said he will "never put myself before the club" and insists Woodward "knows my feelings".

"I am not going to protect myself," Solskjaer said. "I am going to do what is best for the club."

United sit sixth in the Premier League and have two defeats and a draw from three matches in all competitions in 2020.
