„Manchester United“ coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer shared his thoughts at a press conference before the match against „Aston Villa“ on Saturday. Interestingly, at this press conference, the Norwegian indirectly criticized „Liverpool“ coach Jurgen Klopp and complained that after the German's words last season, „Man Utd“ started receiving fewer penalties. Last season, in January, „Liverpool“ lost 0:1 to „Southampton“ in an away game, and in one episode J. Klopp was convinced that a penalty should have been awarded after a foul on Sadio Mane leading to the „saints'“ goal. At that time the German said: „United have had more penalties in two years than I've had in five and a half years... but no excuses today.“ Today, O. G. Solskjaer stated in the press conference: „We should expect to get what we deserve. „We should have had three penalties in the last two matches. A certain coach last year started worrying that we were getting too many penalties, and now it seems that referees find it harder to give us those penalties. „I see a big difference afterward. But we have to leave it to the referees and hope that they will make the right decisions in the near future,“ said the „Man United“ strategist. In last weekend's match between the „Red Devils“ and „West Ham,“ football fans believed that penalties could have been awarded when Cristiano Ronaldo fell in the penalty area after contact with V. Coufal and later with K. Zouma.
