"The 'Man Utd' team was shaken by changes. Club leaders decided to part ways with team strategist Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and began looking for a successor from Norway. As journalist Ian Doyle wrote, one of the main problems of the 'Red Devils' that led the club to fall into a hole was the radical reduction in the number of penalties awarded by referees. 'When the team stopped getting penalties, O. G. Solskjaer began to have problems. During 17 games of the season, the Manchester team received only one such favor and furthermore, managed to beg for a penalty kick. Meanwhile, in the previous season 'Man Utd' missed 18 penalties, and in the season before that - 22 penalties,'" - wrote I. Doyle.
