In that time, they have had four permanent managers, with David Moyes immediately replacing Ferguson, but he lasted nine months, before United then hired Louis van Gaal.Jose Mourinho took over two years later, but despite winning the EFL Cup and Europa League in his debut campaign, the Portuguese was sacked last December. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was then appointed on an interim basis and won 10 out of his first 11 matches in charge, which helped convince the hierarchy to give him the role on a permanent basis.But a disastrous end to the season, which culminated in a 2-0 home defeat by relegated Cardiff on the final day, left them in sixth, outside the coveted Champions League places and with plenty of rebuilding to do over the summer.United have not won the Premier League since Ferguson’s last seasongetty3
