It seems more and more that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will remain the manager of Manchester United for a long time, regardless of the team’s indifferent start to the season.
The team’s poor home form in particular (won 3, drew 1, lost 4) has left several fans asking for the head of the coach, with former Spurs coach Mauricio Pochettino being viewed by many as a significant improvement on the Norwegian.

“The Argentine would gladly face the challenge.”
If Sport’s report is true, even the loss to Sevilla tomorrow could be enough for Zidane to lose his job and Pochettino to intervene.
