Former Manchester United players and current TV pundits have taken to social media to share their thoughts on the sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The Red Devils released a statement announcing their decision to sack the Norweigan manager on Sunday morning after United suffered a humiliating 4-1 defeat to Watford on Saturday.

Following the news, Rio Ferdinand shared a length video on Twitter saying he wasn't surprised by the decision but admitted it was 'not the way he wanted it to end' for Solskjaer.

Meanwhile, David Beckham took to social media to hail Solskjaer as ‘the most gracious man in the room’, while Patrice Evra thanked him for ‘making us believe in Manchester United again’.
