Neville claims Solskjaer is one game away from trouble again at Man Utd

GARY NEVILLE believes that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will not “be sat comfortably” at Manchester United, despite the Red Devils being unbeaten in their last four games.

Since the international break, United have drawn with Liverpool – before beating Partizan Belgrade, Norwich City and Chelsea away from home.

Gary Neville still thinks his former team-mate Solskjaer is under pressure at United

But despite this revival in form, Neville thinks that Solskjaer is still just “one game away” from being under pressure again in the United hotseat.

The Red Devils travel to Bournemouth today sat in seventh – but are already seven points off the top four places.

And Neville told talkSPORT: “As a United fan, I went into the Liverpool game panicking.

“I was thinking this could be a bad day, this could get moody in the stadium, Liverpool are a great team and they could go 3-0 up but United played really well.

“Ole had been questioned tactically but he got it right on the day and that was the start of this little run theyre on, beating Partizan and then the Norwich win was big.

“I dont think they would have been capable of going to Norwich and winning pre-the international break.

“That Liverpool game gave them a little bit of confidence to think: Were better than this, lets be positive and beat Norwich.

“So there has been a mini revival, but I dont think Ole will be sat comfortably in his chair.

“I think he realises he is one game away from the clouds circling again.

Ole is looking up the table rather than look down, so its an important game.

The Norwegian could be without hero of Wednesday night’s win at Chelsea Marcus Rashford, after the England forward needed to ice his knee following his substitution late on at Stamford Bridge.

The 22-year-old slid in celebration after scoring the winner – but had to go off just seven minutes later after feeling pain.

This follows the news that Paul Pogba will be missing until December with the pesky ankle problem that has kept him out since the 1-1 draw with Arsenal.

Harry Maguire is also a doubt, but Luke Shaw should return to first-team training next week.

And another man that could return to Old Trafford is Zlatan Ibrahimovic, with the Swede sensationally linked with a move back to Man United after leaving LA Galaxy.
