After Manchester United's humiliating 5-0 draw yesterday at Old Trafford against Liverpool and Muhammad Salah (hat-trick and cooking), the winds are very restless and reports of the end of Ola Gunnar Solskjaer's term are only growing.
Even among past players there is already agreement that the Norwegian must go home.
Former United player Gary Neville did not feel sorry for himself after the game: "I have actually supported the club's path since Jose Mourinho left until today but it's just clear that Manchester United must return to the base of a football team, and that means starting to work hard. "Everyone runs faster than them? How come they are not good enough? The whole team must work hard to get the ball. There are no excuses for the players."
📕 Should @Cristiano have been sent off for this?
😅 PS.
We would not want to get on the wrong side of @VirgilVDijk!

"For a moment I didn't think it would look that bad. When United play against a real team, the players just crash to pieces," Neville concluded.

Ex-Liverpool player Jamie Krager has blamed the Norwegian manager: "Manchester United owe themselves a better manager. Liverpool may have been at their best, but United's defense is just a joke. How many can be disorganized. It's simple. Jumps to the eye. "
Cristiano Ronaldo and Mohamed Salah have been directly involved in 363 goals across all club competitions since the start of 2017/18.

Either way, the one who tried to reassure the fans in the post-reconciliation was Cristiano Ronaldo, who again disappointed and even escaped a red card after an ugly kick in Curtis Jones while the latter was lying on the grass.
"Sometimes the result is not exactly what we are fighting for," the Portuguese star wrote, "now we have no one to blame but ourselves.
Our fans were amazing and they deserve so much more than that.
We have to prove it now. "
