Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits that Manchester United’s slump has put him and his players under pressure, but insists they are ready to fight their way out of it.
United go to Watford on Saturday having lost six of their last 12 games – including embarrassing defeats to Liverpool and Manchester City.
It has plunged Solskjaer’s future at Old Trafford into doubt, and the 48-year-old spent some time at home in Norway with his family during the international break.

However, the United boss is focussing on the future as he backed his team to recover after the difficult spell.
‘Of course, we know that with a poor run of form we put ourselves under pressure,’ said Solskjaer. ‘That pressure should be a joy. It should make us a better team, and make player perform at the best level. Watford is a very big game, as every Premier League game is, it's a game to go into and enjoy.
‘The players, the staff, myself, the club, we are working on one goal: to improve and get better results.
‘The fans are still supporting the team and the club. They've been through this period, and backed the team through the rebuild.
