Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was apparently lost for words but the silence wasn\u2019t broken by any senior players, either. That\u2019s not the greatest look, really \u2013 it suggests the team wasn\u2019t sure how to react to such a defeat. No anger, fire, or immediate assessment. Just silence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-736713\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/images-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"438\" height=\"247\"  \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was also the first time Solskjaer admitted that his initial dream of \u2018rebuilding the team\u2019 was far behind schedule. Heading into Christmas, they sit eighth \u2013 24 points off leaders Liverpool.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2018I expect us to be more consistent, definitely more experienced and learning from these setbacks\u2026 of course we want to be a team that can go and dominate teams and break teams down. It\u2019s taken Liverpool a few years to get to that state and we need to just keep on building because that\u2019s what we want to get to\u2019.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was hurriedly appointed as official manager of Manchester United after his supposed \u201choneymoon\u201d phase, causing the Red Devils to win fantastically 10 games in a row. However, many doubted this seemingly rushed appointment, including <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ex-Liverpool star, Danny Murphy<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. He believed at the moment, that Solskjaer \u201chad to secure wins against the likes of Man City and Liverpool to prove he\u2019s got the credentials for the job beyond doubt.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unfortunately and also according to many predictions, the \u2018honeymoon\u2019 phase did not last long and Manchester United has fallen into a deep gorge they cannot seem to get out of. Former Chelsea midfielder Craig Burley believes Manchester United desperately need improvement in three positions but must sack Ole Gunnar Solskjaer first.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Burley says the problems grow deeper than with manager Solskjaer but says the Norwegian should be replaced.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The pundit believes United then need to sign a striker, a No 10 and a deeper-lying midfielder. Hopefully, the January transfer window gives the Red Devils the desperate help they need.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>              &#13;\n                    <\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After an embarrassing 2-0 defeat against the team at the bottom of the table, the team and staff simply \u2018sat in stunned silence\u2019 after the game.
