Ole Gunnar Solskjaer insists Manchester United are making progress despite their recent run of form.

The Red Devils have won just two of their last seven matches, which included a 4-2 loss to Leicester City last weekend.

Solskjaer acknowledges there is pressure to keep his job, but the Norwegian has complete faith that United can turn things around.

"You know we've progressed over the years," Solskjaer said ahead of Wednesday's Champions League clash with Atalanta.

"Sixth [place in the Premier League] when I was here for half a season, then third, second, you can see the progress, improvement, development and this season we still want to improve.

"We've signed some players that have raised expectations, other teams have signed players and improved as well so we're in the same boat all the top teams, there's pressure all the time.

"There's pressure on me, of course. But we've been through this before and we've come through it stronger as individuals and as a team. I'm just looking forward to the response now.

"As you said, I'm in dialogue with the club all the time, that's an open and honest discussion all the time."
