Man Utd call 'emergency meeting' to sack Ole Gunnar Solskjaer tonight

Manchester United have called an emergency meeting to discuss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s future as manager, hours after a humiliating 4-1 loss against Watford on Saturday. United board members will attend a virtual meeting at 7pm, with Solskjaer’s compensation terms on the agenda.

Supporters hoped to see a positive reaction at Vicarage Road after the dismal derby defeat to Manchester City last time out.

However, the afternoon quickly became a horror show for United, who have now lost five of their last seven Premier League games.

Josh King, Ismaila Sarr, Joao Pedro and Emmanuel Dennis contributed to the rout, with Donny van de Beek netting a consolation goal off the bench.

And it could have been the final straw for United’s higher-ups, who are set to discuss a change in manager imminently.
