Neville warns Man Utd fans more frustration on the way

Manchester United legend Gary Neville says more frustration will be due the club's fans this season.

Neville fears there will be more disappointing results like Saturday's draw with Southampton.

"I think when you have a team that's young like this Manchester United team is, it's got a lot of players who are developing and trying to prove themselves," he said, speaking on The Gary Neville Podcast.

"I think they're going to get a lot of results like this where they do alright in the game. I actually though it was okay the performance (against Southampton), but they just don't have that clinical element to see it off, to be able to sort of win the game.

"There is an element of frustration at the moment from Manchester United fans because obviously where the club have been, there's still that recent history of big success under Sir Alex Ferguson, but there's been six or seven years now and I think there's an element of frustration building, real frustration, that they're not on the right track.

"I think that they are on the right track in my opinion in terms of what they're doing. Because the first thing that Manchester United have to do, you have to have a group of people in that changing room – it's so important – who want to be there. Forget how talented they are."
