Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has urged the club's fans to be patient with the team following another disappointing showing this evening.
The Red Devils were humiliated by MK Dons in the second round of the League Cup tonight, collapsing to a 4-0 defeat at the hands of their League One opponents.
Van Gaal is now without a win in three matches in charge of the club, but he is hopeful that the fans will "maintain their confidence" in his philosophy.
"You have to analyse the problem and I've done that. We have nine injuries and had a very young team," the Dutchman told reporters after the match.
"I have seen them trying to do their utmost best so you cannot expect more from players. Fans have to believe in our philosophy, we are building a team which we cannot make in one month or even one year.
"It's very disappointing but I hope they maintain their confidence in our club."
United travel to Turf Moor to take on Burnley in the Premier League this weekend having picked up just one point from their opening two matches of the league season.
