West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce says managers always need time to bed down new signings.
West Ham themselves have brought in nine new faces since the end of last season and Allardyce insists getting so many new players to gel is not an easy task for anyone.
"It's not an excuse, it is an actual fact," he said.
"If you've got your players to settle quicker then that is a bonus when you have brought in as many players as I have and as many players as Man United have.
"Irrespective of the talent, you've got to work as a team and to do that you need to understand each other - you need time.
"You can't just walk into a club for two days and say 'I know his strengths and weaknesses, I know his talent'."
