| Manchester United can go top with a win over Leicester |
DANNY MURPHY believes Manchester United's fans are complaining, despite their strong position in the league, because they're 'spoilt'.
The Red Devils are currently second in the league, one point behind unlikely leaders Leicester, who they face on Saturday (5.30pm).
A win would see them leapfrog Claudio Ranieri's side into topspot, however, still the fans and pundits are complaining about Louis van Gaal's style.
And former Liverpool and Fulham midfielder believes it's because they have been spoiled by years of success under Sir Alex Ferguson.
“It’s very simple – they are too defensive. I see a very well organised side and players don’t move out of their positions very much," he told TalkSPORT.
“You see this solidity but because of their amazing success United fans have become a bit spoilt.”
But despite this defensive style, Murphy still thinks they are in with a shout for the title, especially with Chelsea out the picture.

“I think they’ll be close, looking at Manchester City and Arsenal and with Chelsea being out of it,” he added.
“He [Van Gaal] won’t deviate from what he’s doing no matter what we or anyone else says.
“They’re hard to beat, nicking goals and relying on the brilliance from some of his attacking players.”
