Rio Ferdinand says it's time for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to 'hand over the baton' and leave Manchester United after poor start to the season... and claims the manager would 'leave now with his head held high'

Rio Ferdinand has said that now would be the time for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to leave Manchester United.

The Norwegian is under huge pressure at Old Trafford after a poor run of form in which they've lost four out of their last six league games.

United are already nine points off league leaders Chelsea at the top of the table after 11 games.

Ferdinand on his Five with Vibe podcast says he doesn't believe Solskjaer can deliver the Premier League or Champions League to Old Trafford, but could leave the club with his 'head held high'.
