3. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has a win percentage of 54.17% (2018-2021)
The Norwegian took charge of the team back in December 2018 after the sack of Jose Mourinho. His win percentage put him on a similar level to his predecessors but the former Man United forward failed to deliver silverware in his three-year tenure.
Since the return of Cristiano Ronaldo this summer, United had the worst start in the club’s modern history. The Red Devils managed only three wins in their last eleven games this season and their recent 4-1 humiliating loss at the hands of Watford made the club sack the 48-year old manager.
2. Jose Mourinho (2016-2018) – Win percentage of 58.33%
The “special one” Jose Mourinho’s first spell at The Red Devils made him number two on this list. The Portuguese manager took over the club in 2016 and in his first season only guided the club to the double as United won the EFL Cup and the Europa Cup.
Expectations soared in the next season but Mourinho failed to replicate his success although the club finished 19 points behind champions Manchester City.
The third season was full of errors and Mourinho’s famous “third season syndrome” has started to reflect on the results. A number of bad results mounted pressure on the Portuguese and he was finally relieved of his duty following the 3-1 humiliation at the hands of Liverpool.
