Under-fire Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is dejected by how things have been playing out for him and his players.

In its first match after the international break, Manchester United once again failed to be at its best and ended up losing to Watford. Looking at the club's performance, it was evident that the problem wasn't the lack of talent but more on the mental side.

When quizzed to discuss Manchester United's meltdown, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer gave reporters a smile which he quickly apologized for to avoid any possible misconception about his reaction.

“Sorry for smiling there, but that’s human beings,” Solskjaer said via Sky Sports.

“You’re surprised [by the start], all these good lads, top players, top professionals, when it’s not going for you it’s going against you and it’s hard to play with that mental break,” the manager continued.

As expected, Manchester United will be coming up with an immediate solution to the club's disastrous English top flight run. Leading to the Watford game, it was becoming more and more apparent that Solskjaer's future with the Red Devils is already uncertain with widespread rumors swirling he is on the verge of getting sacked.

The humiliating defeat to Watford served as the final nail in the coffin as Manchester United is now working on his dismissal, per The Sunday Times.

According to the report, the club's board has now called for an “emergency meeting” to discuss Solskjaer's firing with former Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane touted as the favorite replacement.
