'They don’t know the mentality' – Former Man United star aims dig at current squad

However, the 38-year-old also said that one issue is the frequent changing of players in the United dressing room.

When Nani joined, he had the likes of Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes to learn from, but new players now aren’t surrounded by that same kind of experience or winning mentality.

“I think what changed is the amount of players who are not used to playing in that club,” he said.

“Because before, if you change one or two players, these two players adapt to the players who are there already. Now you change almost all the players and they don’t know the mentality.

“So to receive the new message, to understand how the club works, to receive how the fans think, it takes time.

“I don’t know if they will understand how to play for that club. I think that was the key for games without success. But yes, it’s creating a new generation, it’s creating a new environment in the club. I believe with those new things, we will be successful.”
