Liverpool great Robbie Fowler has slammed United chief executive Ed Woodward after the club's new PR advisor was spotted at the same match as Mauricio Pochettino.
"Ed Woodward isn't doing Ole Gunnar Solskjaer any favours," he wrote in his Mirror column.
"For all the briefings coming out of Manchester United that they are going to stick by their manager as he attempts to rebuild the team, a single picture really can say a thousand words.
"And the image of Woodward's new PR man striding alongside Mauricio Pochettino … was pretty damning. Pochettino was probably there to lend his support to Marcelo Bielsa. But why the hell was Woodward's new PR man accompanying him?
"There might have been a simple explanation. And if I was in Ole's shoes I would have been knocking on the door of my chief executive to discover just what it was first thing on Thursday morning.
"Even if the meeting was innocent, the sight of a United employee alongside an elite manager who just happens to be on the job market was not a good look.
"Woodward has been steadfast in his stance that United's fifth manager in seven years will be allowed to see the job through. But didn't Mr Woodward give Moyes a vote of confidence?
"Didn't he sack Van Gaal 24 hours after the Dutchman had won the FA Cup because he already had Mourinho lined up?
"And it must be tempting to make another change when top managers like Pochettino and Max Allegri are available for hire.
"Solskjaer deserves a full and frank explanation why his boss' new PR guru was in the company of a man who is being touted to replace him.
"And if a certain Argentine does walk into Old Trafford as the new manager in the summer then more questions need to be asked whether Mr Woodward is a little too naïve to be Manchester United's king-maker."
