RE: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has a tough job at Manchester United this season

There is a lot of work to do for sure. He is where Klopp was three seasons ago and honestly they need time to rebuild. I would say a top 6 finish would be a fair season and anything better is a bonus. The problem is the other teams will be stronger this season and United need to offload players before they get new ones. I can't see many takers for some of their excess baggage either and Pogba wanting 150 Million it will be a tall order. A total revamp keeping some key players is needed and it will be interesting to see how he tackles this one. You can't just offload 10 players out of the squad in one hit, but that is what is needed right now.

Agreed. 3/4 years behind Liverpool, and that's if the right purchases are made.
Fergie left at the perfect time, 1500 games in charge and a bunch of aging glory days players for the next men in charge to sort out. It'll be about 10 years since he left by the time we look half decent again.
I was watching a documentary on Klopp the other day and he was offered the United job whilst still at Borussia Dortmund. Obviously he said no and he admits it was only Liverpool for him. Ole is the right choice for now as other managers wont understand what needs to happen.
After seeing Ole with the youth team before he left for Molde, I thought he was the ideal man to get the best out of the likes of Rashford and Pogba who were part of the youth setup after he retired from playing. At present i'm not so sure but would obviously love him to be given the chance and do well.
