After the sacking of Jose Mourinho, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer won his first eight matches (temporary) in charge. He went on to win 10 of his first 11 and 14 out of his first 19 matches in all competitions before being appointed permanently in March. However, since his permanent appointment as Manchester United coach, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer boasts of an alarming record of just 18 wins from 46 matches in all competitions. In fact, the Norwegian coach has lost more Premier League games than he's won this season. Since the retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson, Manchester United have seen a host of managers take up the role of permanent coaches such as David Moyes, Louis Van Gaal and Jose Mourinho followed by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. From all of the coaches, Jose Mourinho has the best record for Manchester United. He's won 83 of 144 games with a 57.6 per cent win ratio founded on a defence conceding just 0.84 goals per game.
