United have dropped points in their last three Premier League games and will face Liverpool this weekend before taking on Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City along with Atalanta in the Champions League in the coming weeks.

"We've progressed over the years -- sixth when I was here for half a season, third, second. You can see the progress. We've signed some players that have raised expectations," Solskjaer told reporters before United host Atalanta on Wednesday. "Every team will go through a period and we are in one now of poor form. We know that and we know we need to improve... Hopefully, the reaction will come tomorrow."Solskjaer also defended forward Cristiano Ronaldo from criticism over his lack of pressing in recent performances, which came into focus after United's 4-2 loss at Leicester City on Saturday.
