They never learn. I wonder if he'll last longer than Solskjaer

Probably the best decision they could have made given they're the best performing side in the PL since he took charge and the lack of top-class managers likely to be available this summer.

Appointing Solskjaer is often seen as a disaster, but they actually finished 3rd and 2rd in his two full seasons (since then they've finished 6th, 3rd, 8th, 15th, probably 3rd this season). Failing to win a trophy and their disastrous singings of Sancho and Ronaldo led to his downfall.

In the list of United managers since Ferguson, he ranks ahead of Moyes, Van Gaal, Rangnick and Amorin for sure.
 
See no reason for them to replace him, he's done a good job. At least they haven't been daft enough to offer him a 5 year contract off the bat.

Same thing happened with Solskjaer at the wheel until the wheels completely fell off.

Same thing will happen here.

Devil's advocate, this has echoes of Sheehan. But I do agree, they don't have many better options.
