Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says he has no sacking fears

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has claimed that he has no fears of getting sacked by the club's board amid their present struggles and has revealed that they have enough money to strengthen the squad in the upcoming January transfer window. Solskjaer is under increasing pressure, with United down in 12th place, already 15 points behind Liverpool and just two points off the relegation zone, after their worst start to a league season for 30 years. Speaking to Gary Neville in an interview on Sky Sports, Solskjaer claimed that there has been no indication from the board that he would be replaced: “All the talks I've had with the owners, with Ed Woodward and the club have been about me having a three-year contract. We're planning long-term. I've been given the job and if you lose a game or two, you don't wait for a call to be given assurances. But we started out with a plan and a recruitment plan is in place. I'm 100 per cent sure from my time here that the structure is right because it is always the manager who has the final say."
