Solskjaer says Liverpool thrashing was his ‘darkest day’

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer labelled Sunday’s 5-0 hammering at home to Liverpool the “darkest day” he has had as manager of the club but said he had no intention of quitting his role.

“I have come too far, we have come too far as a group. We are too close to give up now,” he said.

However, he conceded that he now has a difficult task in getting the team back on the right track.

“It is going to be a difficult one. The players will be low but there’s loads of characters there,” he said.

“We know we are rock bottom, we can’t feel any worse than this. Let’s see where we take it.”
