Manchester United executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward on Thursday backed manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to find a solution to the club's worst start to a season in 30 years and said it is "a myth that we have non-football people making football decisions".
The 20-time English champions are just two points above the Premier League relegation zone and face bitter rivals Liverpool at Old Trafford on Sunday.
"Ole has also instilled the discipline back into an environment where we may have lacked it in recent years," said Woodward.
"He is building a squad that respects the club's history, in which players work hard and respect their team-mates. No-one is bigger than the club.
"The changes we saw over the summer have resulted in a very young squad.
"But it's also a squad, with the players and the culture, that provides a base camp for us to build and grow from as we start our new journey."
