Brendan Rodgers would have little option but to abandon Leicester and take the Manchester United job were he to be offered it, according to a legendary Liverpool figure.
Solskjaer is under more scrutiny than ever before in the Man Utd hotseat. A 5-0 hammering at the hands of Liverpool has marked a low point in his reign. It came after a hefty loss to Leicester the previous weekend, too. As such, a failure to win in five Premier League games now means United are eight points off leaders Chelsea.
Questions are now being asked of Solskjaer both from within and outside the club. United officials have long pledged their faith in him, but the Liverpool result is believed to have softened their stance.
It’s for that reason that one Sky Sports pundit reckons it will be “like shooting Bambi” when the axe does fall.
