Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is
under pressure after a miserable start to the new
season, and Paul Merson is backing Massimiliano
Allegri as a suitable successor.
The former Juventus boss was replaced by Maurizio
Sarri in the summer and is currently without a job,
and Merson reckons he is the perfect man to take
over at Old Trafford if he is backed in the transfer
market.
“I feel sorry for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at United,”
Merson told Sky Sports .
“He’s in at the wrong time, you can’t sell goals.
Romelu Lukaku was their goalscorer, he might not
chase the full-back but he puts the ball in the net.
“That’s what it’s all about. Who takes his job?
“This is a lifetime job. You manage England, you
manage Manchester United, they’re the two.
“I wouldn’t see a queue round the block because
they’re a million miles off. If you come in, you think
‘where am I taking this team?’.
“This is a six, seven-hundred-million-pound job
