Roy Keane Questions Erik ten Hag’s Positivity After Man United Draw
Manchester United secured a dramatic 2-2 draw against Liverpool at Old Trafford, but the performance left former United midfielder Roy Keane unconvinced.
Ten Hag Focuses on Resilience After Draw
Erik ten Hag, Manchester United manager, highlighted his team’s resilience after a challenging first half against Liverpool.
United conceded possession and struggled to create chances, but they managed to stay in the game.
Ten Hag pointed to the team’s improved performance in the second half and their belief in securing a victory as reported by The Mirror.
Disagreement Over United’s Performance
However, Roy Keane, known for his critical approach to the game, took a different stance.
“Listen, obviously he’s had a couple of glasses of wine after the game,” Keane told Sky Sports after watching Ten Hag’s post-match
While acknowledging United’s ability to stay in the contest, Keane felt their overall performance was far from convincing.
He questioned Ten Hag’s upbeat demeanor in his post-match interview, suggesting it might not reflect the team’s current shortcomings.
Keane, while acknowledging the potential of the squad and its young players, believes Manchester United are far from competing with the likes of Arsenal, Manchester City, and Liverpool for the Premier League title.
He suggests they are currently battling for a potential fourth or fifth-place finish.
The contrasting views between Ten Hag and Keane highlight the ongoing debate surrounding Manchester United’s progress under their new manager.
While Ten Hag is focused on building positivity and highlighting encouraging signs, Keane advocates for a more realistic assessment of the team’s current struggles.
