Richard Madeley: How does a team like Man UTD 'lose the plot'
UFC legend Conor McGregor has given his verdict on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's uncertain future as Manchester United manager. Solskjaer is on the brink at Old Trafford after Sunday's 5-0 home humiliation against Liverpool added to United's troublesome start to the season.
Adidas and Manchester United have launched their official 2021/22 home jersey, putting a modern twist on their classic club styles.
United were widely expected to dismiss the Norwegian boss in the aftermath of the result, but he will be in charge of the weekend trip to Tottenham Hotspur.
But ESPN report a poor result against Spurs, Atalanta or Manchester City before next month's international break would likely seal his fate.
Amid the mass discussion over Solskjaer's impending departure, there is little suggestion that he could stick around in another aspect.
But McGregor believes he could still positively contribute to the Red Devils away from the managerial position.

One of the outstanding positives of Solskjaer's tenure as United manager has been his transfer strategy and the contrast from that of Jose Mourinho.
The 48-year-old has mainly targeted younger players or those entering their peak years - including Bruno Fernandes and Raphael Varane.
He's also brought English talent like Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Harry Maguire and Jadon Sancho through the door.
Solskjaer could potentially fulfil a role with a say in transfers, working with John Murtough to ensure to traditions of the club are met in the market.
