Manchester United legend Roy Keane insists Ole Gunnar Solskjaer must be given more time to succeed at Old Trafford.

Monday's draw with Arsenal left United with their worst start in 30 years and pressure on Solskjaer is mounting.

But Keane says his former teammate needs a couple of transfer windows to change his squad.

"I think he has been brilliant, a good honest guy. It is hard work at the moment, but there are six or seven young players learning their way," said Keane on Sky Sports.

"We're all very impatient, we want success yesterday, but you have to give the man time. He is frustrated, under pressure, but dealing with it. He's a classy guy but no doubt he will be disappointed at not winning enough games.

"They have given him the job, support him in a couple of transfer windows. Are there more tough days ahead? You bet your life, but you need to stick with it. There was a lack of quality from both teams tonight. Their lack of goals, the lack of opportunities they're creating.

"Give these boys time. But on tonight's performance, none of them [neither Manchester United nor Arsenal] will be in the top four."
