[Grace Robertson] Solskjaer has done the job he was hired for. The next part is very different.

Dude, we had a great run during his interim period typified by the Paris result. He got the job soon after and after that we had a disastrous run, remember how we were toothless vs Cardiff and got demolished by Everton. So he deserved to get the full time job because of that run but shouldn't he then by your logic not deserve to be the full time manager after the disastrous run? Whether it would've been impractical to sack him after just handing him the contract is another thing. According to your logic, if he wins 10 games out of his first 10 in the interim period (so he deserved the job) but then lost 8 out of the next 10 games then he shouldn't deserve the job right?

Ole's record before being confirmed full time was (in the premier league) 10 wins 2 draws and 1 loss out of 13 games Ole's record after being confirmed full time was 2 wins 2 draws and 4 losses out of 8 (winless in the last 5).

His initial run was very impressive, but it is much more likely to stem from being a caretaker and instilling positivity after Jose had been so toxic than his unique managerial skills. His run after being confirmed full time was very bad considering we were fighting for top 4 and everything mattered. Isn't this a fair assessment?
