Darron Gibson is happy to bide his time at Manchester United Football Club.

The 21-year-old may be an international with the Republic of Ireland but he remains on the fringes of the first team at Old Trafford, which is something he can live with - for now.

"It is frustrating when you are not playing, but a lot of young players make the mistake of leaving United too early without getting a chance," said Gibson. "I am just going to bide my time.

"Hopefully the chance comes and I can take it. I have had chances to go on loan here and there, and I have turned them down and the gaffer has turned them down for me as well.

"I am just going to bide my time and hopefully the chance comes sooner rather than later."
