Morgan Schneiderlin pays tribute to Southampton supporters

Morgan Schneiderlin has thanked Southampton's "incredible" supporters for standing by him over the past seven seasons.

The Frenchman completed a switch to Manchester United on a four-year deal earlier today, bringing to an end months of speculation over his future.

Schneiderlin played a big part in the club's promotion to the Premier League upon joining in 2008, while also proving to be a vital figure in the engine room in the subsequent years.

However, having now brought an end to his St Mary's career, the 25-year-old took to Twitter to pay tribute to Southampton fans.
