Chelsea captain John Terry is refusing to read too much into Manchester United's disappointing early season form.

The Premier League champions have managed a return of four points from their three opening games of the new term with their latest setback coming at Liverpool on Saturday.

The Blues, meanwhile, have impressed during the early stages of the new campaign with manager Luiz Felipe Scolari guiding his side to three wins and a draw.

However, ahead of Sky Sports 1 and HD1's live clash between the two top-flight giants on Sunday, England defender Terry has warned his team-mates that he expects United to vastly improve as the season unravels.

He told Sky Sports News: "They have not started too well but we have certainly not seen the last of United, that's for sure.

"But if we can get another win at home against them then we can really push on.

"Liverpool have started well so we have to be careful of all teams. The top four have started well and we know that Man United will have a run later on in the season I'm sure."
