Ole Gunnar Solskjaer reiterated that "it's not going to be a quick fix" but remains confident Manchester United see him as the right man to take them forwards.
Back-to-back Premier League defeats to Liverpool and Burnley have been compounded by a toxic atmosphere around the club, with fans making their anger at the Glazer family and executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward loud and clear.
Scrutiny on Solskjaer is also growing but the manager is confident of turning things around as United look to get back to winning ways this weekend at Tranmere in the FA Cup fourth round.
"For me, we do have a way of doing things," he said. "Of course you can see other teams have done well. Jurgen (Klopp) spent four years building his team and they're doing well now, so of course - I've said so many times - it's not going to be a quick fix.
"And it's not going to be like eight players in or 10 players in one transfer window. We've had one proper transfer window in the summer because the January's they are difficult, but we are trying to do something now."
Solskjaer believes United have laid the foundations for success, even if the side have lost more Premier League matches than they have won since his permanent appointment in March.
"When you start on something, you stick to that plan," the United boss said.
"For me, anyway. I'm not going to change six or eight or nine or 10 months after I got the job and start believing in a different way of doing things.
"I'm going to stick to what I've been trusted to do by the club and hopefully that'll be good enough, and they can see what we're doing is right.
"It's one of these jobs - we know how football is nowadays - but all my conversations with the club have been positive."
For the first time United fans appear to be turning on Solskjaer with a near empty stadium greeting the final whistle in their 2-0 defeat at home to Burnley this week.
Asked if it is about both fans and the club holding their nerve, Solskjaer said: "Of course, we can't react to all the noise outside.
"Of course there's always going to be criticism, you've got to take the criticism at this club. You've got to be stronger mentally, probably, than anywhere else in the world.
"I feel I am, the club is strong. The staff I've got with me, they're very strong mentally so we're sticking to what we believe in and I've got full faith in what we're doing."
Victor Lindelof is available after illness and Eric Bailly could return from a knee injury despite the poor Prenton Park pitch.
United meanwhile have been fined £20,000 for failing to "ensure their players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion" during the 2-0 Premier League defeat against Liverpool last week.
