After United lost 4-1 to Manchester City, United star Keane criticised the performance of Manchester United players, arguing that 5 or 6 players should not continue to play for Manchester United.
Speaking about United's performance, Keane said, "United gave up, in derby, in any game, it's unforgivable. You have to chase back, you have to go pass. United have always shown themselves for many years, but we have seen a reflection of where the team and the club are. They're far behind the other teams, you can always hear the noise of what's going on in the dressing room, the new coach comes, but your own pride has to start playing a role at some point. ”
"There are 5 or 6 players who should not continue to play for Manchester United. This is shameful. Manchester City are a fantastic team and that's why they're champions. You want the bench players to make an impact, but they're not ready for crazy runs. That includes a couple of lads in midfield, Wan-Bissaka, Fred, Maguire, Rashford, and I can go on. ”
"Manchester City simply don't need to be at their best, they could have performed better. Like at Old Trafford, they were playing manchester United players. Like the old saying goes, it's men versus boys. They gave up, which is humiliating. They always put up the white flag early and the game was over. ”
After Keane's remarks, Richards said, "Why don't you take over the job?" Honestly, you can do better than they do. ”
Keane also said, "The pre-game C Ronaldo thing worried me a lot. There must be something going on behind the scenes for clubs, teams and players. Something is really wrong, we've been talking about it for months. ”
However, Redknapp believes the problem is not with the coach, "as a team, they simply don't work. It takes time and the right culture. Now, United are a million kilometres behind. Whoever is the next manager, he needs a lot of time and a lot of work to do. In the second half, they didn't even try to kick the opponent's leg. ”
