Manchester United news: Paul Ince dismisses Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s record and backs Mauricio Pochettino for permanent job
Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Ince insists Tottenham’s Mauricio Pochettino remains the prime long-term candidate over interim boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.Solskjaer has become the first United manager in history to win their opening six matches after taking over from the sacked Jose Mourinho, boosting the Norwegian’s chances of getting the job on a permanent basis.2

Mauricio Pochettino has been heavily linked with the permanent job at Old Trafford

However, Ince poured cold water on the turnaround, saying the former Red Devils’ striker should not be a long-term solution.“We can’t get too sucked in with what Ole’s done. Let’s be honest, it couldn’t get any worse at Manchester United before Jose Mourinho left,” he told Paddy Power News.“The shackles are off, but that doesn’t mean that Ole is the right man for the job. I could have gone in and done the same thing, so could Steve Bruce.2

Paul Ince dismissed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s bright start

“The club shouldn’t be making rash decisions, picking a manager just because he’s had six wins on the bounce, all of which came against below-average sides bar one.“If he gets the club into the top four, and into the final of the Champions League, then that would be the time when the board should be swayed. “So, for the next few years what the club need to do is bring in a manager that can seriously get United competing with (Manchester) City and Liverpool and of the options available, Pochettino is the man to do that.“I believe he should be Man United’s number one choice for the job and they should do whatever they can to get him.”
