Solskjaer unhappy Manchester United failed to sign midfielder

Every man and his dog is aware of Manchester United’s problems in midfield.

To put it into some perspective, United have won five of their 11 games this season and their midfield imbalance leads to exposure most weeks in the Premier League.

The Manchester Evening News now claims Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is unhappy the club failed to sign a midfielder in the transfer window as he continues to struggle to find the right system to get the most out of his players.

Apparently, a combination of factors prevented United from bolstering the midfield — and the manager is reportedly unhappy about the failure to address a pretty big problem.

United have lost two of their last three Premier League matches, keeping one clean sheet in their last 19, and Liverpool come to Old Trafford this weekend.

The report claims sources say the unlikelihood of a midfield signing did not stop United from wanting to buy one and there was an agreement within the club structure that a winger and a centre-back should be prioritised.

United were linked to a number of midfielders in the summer, too: Eduardo Camavinga, Declan Rice and Leon Goretzka.

  1. A winger, a RIGHT WINGER was the priority and Solskjaer wanted and demanded Sancho. Since Utd signed Sancho Solskjaer hasn’t played him on the right wing, in fact he has hardly played him at all and now this coach/manager is moaning about not getting a midfielder? Blimey the writing is on the wall now, just go, go now before you completely lose any admiration the fans have for you as a former player.

  2. Man united board and chairman need to do what’s the best interest in the club and sack solskjaer before the fans start to revolt on the club again with protests outside the ground on every home games.and get conte in.i don’t agree with protest and breaking in to the theatre of dreams this is my club I have supported since I was 5 year old its now 55 years.we need to start winning trophies and get the glory days back and fear factor back into the club with the right manager in charge but you won’t with solskjaer in charge.glory days went when our greatest manager retired sir alex ferguson the club has gone downward since the great man retired

  3. Old Gunner Solskjaer is not the man to take Manchester United to glory. We really love him as Man United legend but he lacks the capacity to do anything more for the club than all he has done so far. So the best for the Club’s Board to do now is to send him packing. Sack Solskjaer now, before we see more disgrace.

  4. Stick with OLE every club has a bad time now is not the time to go changing the Manager it’s about time the 10 out field player’s looked in the MIRROR their getting big MONEY to play Football they get more in a WEEK then ORDINERY WORKER’S WILL GET IN A LIFE TIME BY THE WAY DAVID DEGEA IS THE ONLY PLAYER THAT WAS PROUD TO WEAR THE MANCHESTER UNITED JERSEY
