A torrid run of form has seen the Red Devils slip to sixth on the table, after only four wins from their opening 12 games.

Their latest defeat came at the derby against Manchester City, in a result that only seemed to pile more pressure on Solskjaer.

But speaking at a press conference ahead of the game, the Norwegian disclosed his side is working on turning their fortunes around.

"When you lose, you are always disappointed and under pressure,” Solskjaer said.
"Sometimes the first thing you want to do is get back on the training ground.
"But this has been a good time to refresh our minds. We have prioritised a few things and I am sure you will see a reaction."

Following their derby defeat to City, Solskjaer went off on a brief holiday as he gave United players a week of football action as well.

De Bruyne claims Man City only trained for 10 minutes to beat Man United in Manchester Derby

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Kevin De Bruyne has revealed that Man City did not do much in training to overcome city rivals Man United in the Manchester derby.

The Citizens produced a dominant display against the Red Devils who only had one threat on goal from Cristiano Ronaldo in the entire 90 minutes.

An own goal from Eric Bailly and another from Benardo Silva gave Pepe Guardiola men a commanding victory over their rivals.

Man City's talisman De Bruyne has claimed City only trained for ten minutes to prepare for the game at Old Trafford.

The Premier League defending champions are just three points behind league leaders Chelsea who dropped points against Burnley.

On the other hand, Man United dropped to six points off their city rivals as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has come under immense pressure.
