Louis Saha says that it is Manchester United's players who are to blame for he club's problems.
The Red Devils slumped to a 2-0 defeat against Olympiakos in Greece on Tuesday evening and currently stand 11 points off a top four spot in the Premier League.
As such, bookmakers are pricing them to finish the campaign as an 8-1 outside shot for a Champions League place.
Yet former striker Saha says that manager David Moyes isn't to blame for the champions fall from grace - and that the club's experienced players must carry the can.
“Ryan Giggs and others, who have so much experience like Nemanja Vidic and Patrice Evra, are top players," Saha said, speaking to TalkSPORT.
“I think they are the ones who should help the manager. They’re missing some spark.
"There is a lack of urgency and as a result the performance [against Olympiakos] was flat.
"I think the players should look at themselves.”
