'I blame Sir Alex Ferguson!' - Patrice Evra points finger at old Man Utd boss for downfall of club in modern day as current players 'don't have any example'

Premier League

<p><a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-utd-worst-ever-finish-premier-league-nightmare-arsenal-tipped-to-pip-man-city-to-title/blt68f8703f6261c49a" target="_blank">Manchester United have endured another difficult start to the season</a> and continue to look a long way off challenging for the Premier League title. The Red Devils have not been crowned champions of England since Ferguson guided the team to glory in the 2012-13 season during his final campaign in charge - the modern-day side currently sit down in 12th place, already 10 points behind leaders Liverpool after just eight games.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Evra also enjoyed great success at United under Ferguson, winning a host of titles including five Premier League crowns and the Champions League. The Frenchman has now given his verdict on United's continuing troubles and why he feels the players are struggling to fight for trophies and restore the club to its former glories.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>He told <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c15352z5w73o" target="_blank"><em>BBC Sport</em></a>: "It's always tough to talk about United right now because back in the day we used to play for the fan, for the badge, for the history. We lose a little bit of those values. I blame myself, I blame Sir Alex Ferguson. When we left, we left too early and it's difficult for the players because they don't have any example."</p>

WHAT EVRA SAID

<p>Manager Erik ten Hag has won the FA Cup and the League Cup during his time in charge but <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/man-utd-make-contact-ex-barcelona-xavi-erik-ten-hag-sacking/blt2977b2ea38603ba2" target="_blank">his future at the club still seems uncertain</a> due to an inability to mount a Premier League title challenge. The Dutchman has also failed to impress in European competition with United and will try again on Thursday when the Red Devils face Fenerbahce in the Europa League.</p>
