Liverpool hero Jamie Carragher insists Ole Gunnar Solskjaer isn't good enough to lead Manchester United to titles.

He wrote for the Sunday World: "Watching Ole Gunnar Solskjaer trying to take on Jurgen Klopp, Pep Guardiola and Thomas Tuchel reminds me in many ways of my experiences as a player with England.

"People could say, 'You weren't good enough for England', and I'd agree – I know I wasn't because John Terry and Rio Ferdinand were better than me.

"There was nothing I could do. I couldn't be better than them. Terry was taller than me and was always going to be better in the air. Ferdinand was quicker and stronger. I had to work harder or try to think cleverer than them but they both read the game brilliantly.

"I maxed out with what I had and probably did well pushing them. But the reality is nothing I could do was ever going to supplant the two of them. It's the same with Solskjaer up against Klopp, Guardiola and Tuchel.

"He's done a good job at Manchester United. I honestly believe that. He's probably exceeded expectations. There's been entertainment you didn't get under Louis van Gaal and Jose Mourinho. But he's never going to be at the level of the three managers he's got to beat."
