Those days of dominance are long gone for the Red Devils with just a place in the top four and Champions League qualification their target.Defeat at Goodison Park was United's sixth in eighth games, a run that has seen them crash out of the Champions League and FA Cup, as well as slip back down to sixth in the Premier League.
Now the Norwegian, only hired on a permanent basis last month, has to show he has the ability to arrest the slump even before a major restructure of his squad takes place in the summer. “Against City at Old Trafford on Wednesday, that's the biggest incentive we can have,” said Solskjaer after the Everton embarrassment.
However, Guardiola's men have a game in hand and should they move top once more with a win tomorrow, would just need to see off Burnley, Leicester and Brighton to guarantee the title.City's quest for a quadruple of trophies fell short by the finest of margins as they lost on away goals to Tottenham in the quarter-finals of the Champions League last week.
