Moyes warns Solskjaer of United sack risk

West Ham United manager David Moyes has warned Ole Gunnar Solskjaer that he risks getting sacked unless results improve at the Old Trafford club.
United have yet to win in four attempts at home in the Premier League this season, suffering three defeats and drawing against Chelsea at the Theatre of Dreams.
The Red Devils have lost their last two games, the last a truly dire reverse at Istanbul Basaksehir in the UEFA Champions League in midweek.
Moyes was sacked at United eight months after replacing Alex Ferguson in 2013, with his final match a 2-0 defeat at Everton, the team United face next at Goodison Park on Saturday.  
The West Ham manager knows only too well that pressure on Solskjaer will continue to build if United do not start winning games.  
“All managers are under pressure,” he said during his press conference on Friday.  
“At Manchester United there is more pressure than any club in the world. It comes with the job.  
“We know what happens if you don’t win enough games.”
