Solskjaer not concerned about losing his job after recent sackings in EPL

Manchester United coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says he is not concerned about losing his job following a couple of sackings in the EPL in the past two weeks.

Tottenham dismissed Mauricio Pochettino before Arsenal sacked Unai Emery and Watford parted company with Quique Sanchez Flores.

The pressure has been on Solskjaer of late as he has struggled to deliver the best results for the team this season. The Red Devils are placed in 10th position with 18 points from 14 league matches, their worst start to a campaign in 31 years.

Speaking at a presser on Tuesday ahead of their game against Spurs tonight, the gaffer said: “It’s that time of year. It’s never nice to see your colleagues lose their jobs – now three in a very short space of time.

“It doesn’t make me more concerned (about losing my job too).

“We have had too many draws for my liking – defeats as well, but draws we should have turned into wins.

“Football is a results business, and we’re not happy and know we should do better.”

Meanwhile, the Spurs game will Jose Mourinho – who succeeded Pochettino last month- returning to Old Trafford for the first time since his sacking in December 2018.

The match kicks-off at 9:30 Zimbabwean time and it will be live on SuperSport TV.
