United announced that they will appoint a caretaker manager until the end of the season while they look for a long-term boss.It is understood United are considering their former striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, currently manager of Molde, with regard to the caretaker role, and Pochettino is believed to be the main target to take over next summer.Former United captain Neville said on Sky Sports: “When I look at the values of Manchester United, you look at Mauricio Pochettino’s belief in young players at (previous club) Southampton and with Tottenham.“You look at his performance levels and the style of play, the way in which he carries himself at all times.“People suggest he hasn’t won a trophy yet at Tottenham but with a net spend of minus 29million or something over the last four years, I’m not sure he could have done more.“I do think he is the person who is the outstanding candidate.”
