Keane made a passionate defense of the Norwegian manager alluding to the time needed by Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp to establish themselves and the lack of scrutiny that Frank Lampard is currently under at Chelsea.
He ends up making the case that Solskjaer should stay in charge at Old Trafford for another 12 months. That will delight LFC fans who are always keen to hop on to social media to hashtag #OleIn!
While Solskjaer can point to two draws at Old Trafford against Klopp to support his case for more time, United are 30 points behind the league leaders. And it is still the middle of January.
Despite spending more money than any other club in the summer transfer window United are still failing.
They spent £80 million on Harry Maguire from Leicester City and £50 million of Aaron Wan Bissaka from Crystal Palace. Yet those two sides still have better goal records than United in the Premier League this season.

I can only hope the ownership at Old Trafford feel the same way as Keane. I will be delighted to Solskjaer trot out his smile and excuses every week as they continue to tank and Liverpool stride towards more trophies.
