Tearful departure as Man Utd stars say goodbyes to doomed boss after Watford humiliation
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer looked glum as he drove home after Manchester United’s humiliating 4-1 defeat to Watford.
According to Sun, the loss, which saw club captain Harry Maguire get sent off, is the last straw for the Norwegian.
The players are also expecting Solskjaer to get the sack.

Bruno Fernandes tried to take some of the heat off Solskjaer after the full-time whistle after fans booed the boss as he approached the away end.
The Portugal international wagged his finger and pointed to all his team-mates, signalling they’re equally to blame for the shocking result.
Solskjaer, as well as Fred, steered Fernandes away from any risk of confrontation.
United have just one win in their last seven league outings, leaving them 12 points adrift table-toppers Chelsea.
