Manchester United boss David Moyes has thanked fans for their support this season.
Since succeeding Sir Alex Ferguson at the club Moyes has won just 13 of his 27 Premier League games leaving the current champions languishing seventh in table.
Moyes said: "The club is built on a fantastic fan base throughout the world not just here in Manchester, Manchester United is supported everywhere. I saw that when I went on tour and more importantly I'm seeing it a lot at Old Trafford with great support.
Moyes has thanked Manchester United's fans for their loyalty in what he admits has been a difficult season
"I think the supporters understand the difficult period we are in and they are backing the players, they really are.
"I really believe the players are working hard for each other - they know they can play better and will play better."
He added: "If you are a football supporter you understand what loyalty is - if you are someone who follows a club passionately then you follow them whether it is doing badly or whether it is doing well.
"It takes stronger supporters to support your club when it is not doing well, sometimes it is a bit easier when we are winning, at the moment the Manchester United supporters realise there is some changes being made and they understand their time will come again."
