Peter Schmeichel has called for patience after Manchester United's loss to Newcastle United on Sunday.

The former United goalkeeper cited Sir Alex Ferguson's slow start to his United career as evidence of why supporters must stick with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

"Before we all go mad about what needs to be done and gets carried away on how 'bad' it is, let's just remind ourselves of how long it took Sir Alex Ferguson to create a winning team," he wrote on Twitter.

"Manchester United building success takes time!"
