Manchester United icon Roy Keane has criticized the team's performance against Liverpool on Tuesday, which resulted in a humiliating 4-0 defeat for the Red Devils.
Ralf Rangnick's team couldn't afford to lose any points if they were to finish in the top four.
However, they suffered a humiliating defeat, with Keane criticizing a number of the players' performances.
Prior to the game, Harry Maguire stated that if he was out of form, he would not be selected by his club manager.
Given the 29-year-dismal old's performance, Keane suggested that the United captain's statements have no merit.
According to Sky Sports (through MEN), Keane said:
"Defensively, we're trying to assist Maguire, giving out PR before the game, the last goal Maguire - his passing and defending are not acceptable, not good enough for Man United."
We'll make use of that.
Marcus Rashford was another United player who came under scrutiny from the club's former captain.
Following Fabrizio Romano's revelation that he is unhappy with his place in the squad, his future at the club has been unknown.
Keane bemoaned the forward's performance against Liverpool while also expressing his surprise at Jesse Lingard's continued presence at the club:
"Up front, Rashford's performance was outstanding.
Jesse Lingard came in to save Man United, Jesse Lingard should've left the club two years ago, he's not good enough, Rashford looked like a child up front, he wasn't getting service but he was getting it in the first half when you're through on goal and you take a bad touch."
Following each loss, Red Devils players frequently take to social media or chat with reporters to express regret for the team's performance.
However, the performances never seem to improve, much like Groundhog Day.
Indeed, they deteriorate in various ways.
United's continuous apologies irritated Keane, who said:
"This is something we've heard a lot this season.
When you've been beaten and have to face the media, it's difficult; we keep hearing the same thing: 'we need to be a team, we need to do better,' but we don't see it."
Erik ten Hag is expected to take over in the summer, according to Fabrizio Romano, who claims Manchester United will announce his hiring soon.
Manchester United, according to Keane, must ensure that the correct type of players are brought in:
"They need to bring in men who are, first and foremost, respectable lads, excellent quality pros, and talented enough to compete.
Man United is now fifth or sixth in the league, Man United is fifth or sixth in the league, Man United is fifth or sixth in the league, Man United is fifth or sixth in the league, Man United is fifth
Unbelievable."
Manchester United's next match is against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium, with their dreams of finishing in the top four on the line.
