Manchester United sack Ole Gunnar Solskjaer - and announce who will replace him for 'forthcoming games'

Former club captain Gary Neville said Solskjaer's dismissal had"been coming for the last few weeks" and described the performance at Watford as"wimpish".But the players must"take responsibility" too, Neville said.

Regarding the club hierarchy, the Sky Sports pundit said they had not"planned or prepared for this" and it had"deteriorated so badly and so quickly".Solskjaer, 48, did not win any trophies during his three years in charge, losing four of five semi-finals and the single final his team made it to in that period.It added:"Ole will always be a legend at Manchester United and it is with regret that we have reached this difficult decision.

"While the past few weeks have been disappointing, they should not obscure all the work he has done over the past three years to rebuild the foundations for long-term success. "Ole leaves with our sincerest thanks for his tireless efforts as manager and our very best wishes for the future." The statement continued:"His place in the club's history will always be secure, not just for his story as a player, but as a great man and a manager who gave us many great moments.Ole Gunnar Solskjær holds his hands up to the away Manchester United fans after they're thrashed 4-1 at Watford

One thing is for sure. By tomorrow he'll be jetting off somewhere warmer with a big grin at his 'payoff'. He probably thanked the players in dressing room. Hilarious.

Chelsea 3 Leicester 0 ! Bring it on ! There’s no imagination in the premier league when it comes to overpaid managers. Especially when you earn more sacked than employed.

I am not a Man U fan, but a sad day to see legendary players fail at their dream jobs. I wish him well for the future!
