Solskjaer: it could take United two years to catch City

Ole Gunnar Soljkaer's side are currently 14 points behind their rivals in the Premier League table and the United manager has encouraged his club that progress must be made slowly and not to get carried away. He believes it could take two years for them to catch their Manchester rivals and mount a title challenge. Jesse Lingard was more hopeful, suggesting his side should expect to challenge for the title next season but his manager has urged his players to be more patient.

Nine wins from 10 since Solsjkaer's introduction has breathed new life into the club who have broken into the top four after a victory at Fulham on Saturday.
