Former captain and club legend Gary Neville unleashed a blistering attack on Manchester United's present bunch of players, blaming their "excuse mentality" for their continuing prolonged slump.
Neville, who is among a select group of footballers, who retired as a one-club wonder after being associated with the 20-time English champions from 1992-2011, has claimed that "every day feels like a soap opera" at United.
"You can't put your finger on one thing when you watch United nowadays. Every day feels like a soap opera," Neville told British broadcaster Sky Sports. "You hear the players want Mauricio Pochettino, then Cristiano Ronaldo's going to leave."
"There's a confidence issue but there's also an issue of excuse mentality and of looking after themselves and not looking at the bigger picture which is creating a brilliant team and trying to get back up that league," the ex-England international added.
Neville even went as far as to say that United are looking lethargic and something needs to change pretty quickly if Ralf Rangnick's men want to see themselves competing for any kind of silverware next season.
"It's a bit of a mess and United fans have to take their medicine," the 46-year-old concluded.
