Manchester United news: The fixtures that could decide Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's future at Old Trafford

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer tasted defeat for the first time in his 12-game reign as Manchester United's interim boss when Paris Saint-Germain handed out a Champions League lesson at Old Trafford.

A run of 10 wins and one draw before Tuesday night's result had prompted popular calls for him to be installed as Jose Mourinho's permanent replacement, and his chances could rest on what United do over the remainder of the season.

But it won't be easy with United set for a number of crunch clashes along the way.

Here we take a look at Solskjaer's next seven games and the role they could play in that decision.
