The heat is on for Manchester United as they enter their penultimate game of the Premier League season against West Ham.
A result will put them in charge of their own destiny when it comes down to Champions League qualification but a defeat would put a serious spanner in the works.
As fate would have it, they go into this clash knowing former manager David Moyes will be in charge of the Hammers and unlikely to hold back.
His side have lived to fight another day in the English top tier and have been victorious in three of their last five games, including a 3-2 win over top four rivals Chelsea.
This could make it an even tougher job for Red Devils boss Solskjaer ahead of the Wednesday evening fixture.
His men were beaten by the Blues in their FA Cup semi-final on Sunday and the manner of the defeat, with David De Gea making a mistake and the side looking disjointed after several changes might have thrown an in-form side off kilter.
Ally McCoist says Man United MUST consider replacing David De Gea with Dean Henderson
Solskjaer has failed to assure De Gea of his spot in the team but insisted the whole squad were remaining focused on the whole situation and not just their goalkeeping concerns.
“We’ve just got to stick together, stay strong,” the United boss said.
“Now we’ve got two games to go and we’ve given ourselves a very good chance.
“This is not going to become a David De Gea press conference. We’re just going to stick together.
“We’ve got two games, so we’re just going to focus on that one.
“David’s mentally strong enough to know that his job is to perform in training the next day and then be ready for the games.”

Manchester United team news
Eric Bailly is set to miss the match while there are questions about De Gea’s starting role.
Bailly went to hospital on Sunday after a clash of heads with team-mate Harry Maguire in the FA Cup semi-final defeat to Chelsea and while he’s had the necessary tests it would be unwise for him to play.
Should Solskjaer deem De Gea not good enough, or not in a decent mental state then Sergio Romero may deputise.
Luke Shaw is fit but Brandon Williams could continue in the role to allow the former more time to get fit.
Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood, along with Paul Pogba should return to the XI.

West Ham team news
Right-back Ryan Fredericks and mdifelder Robert Snodgrass are both still injury doubts for the Hammers.
Fredericks missed Friday’s win over Watford with a calf problem and if he’s still unavailable then Ben Johnson will deputise. Snodgrass has yet to figure since the restart due to a back injury but is unlikely to have displaced Tomas Soucek or Mark Noble even if fit.
