Ole Gunnar Solskjaer blames Jurgen Klopp for Manchester United being awarded fewer penalties this term
Jurgen Klopp, according to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, is to blame for Manchester United receiving fewer penalties this season.
Solskjaer was irritated after Cristiano Ronaldo’s two appeals in last weekend’s win at West Ham were turned down, and he also felt United should have been awarded a penalty for Mark Noble’s challenge on Jesse Lingard when the two clubs met again in the Carabao Cup at Old Trafford on Wednesday night.
Klopp, according to the United manager, has contributed to the problem by complaining about how many penalties were given to United in January.
“We just have to hope we get what we deserve,’ said Solskjaer ahead of Saturday’s game against Aston Villa.
“We should have had three penalties in the last two games. There was a certain manager who worried about us getting pens last year and after that it seems like the decisions were more difficult to give.
“I’ve seen a big difference since then on. You just have to leave it to the refs and hope they make the right calls very soon.”
