Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has dismissed the bookies' claims of him being among the favourites to be first sacked this Premier League season.

Solskjaer says he doesn't give the odds a second thought.

"What people say about me, I don't care. At least I don't think in those lanes there," Solskjaer told VG.

"My motivation is to get to work with these guys here, when they are so focused with a desire to get better. I've never been the one to lie down and cry if anyone criticises me.

"There are no better jobs than being the manager of a football club, and I may have to stop joking that I've gotten older. Obviously, not everyone understands the joke!"
