Roy Keane has slammed Manchester United’s defending and admitted he has ‘given up’ them.
The Corkman tore strips off David DeGea and Luke Shaw for their part in Manchester City’s two first half goals at Old Trafford.
Speaking on Sky Sports at halftime, an animated Keane called out the lack of urgency and fight in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team.
He said: “This defending, Shaw, not enough pressure. When they [City] get the ball in this area you’ve got to have intensity, you’ve got to put pressure on.
“You’re on the ropes…stay in the game. You’re like a boxer.
“Look at Shaw here and the goalkeeper. I’ve been cursing these fellas for years. I give up on these players.
“These are international footballers. I can’t understand the defending. I give up.
“They’ve been like this all season. Giving up chances.
“Unless United do something drastic, there’ll be another four or five.
“They have to get the next goal or it’s going to get really, really ugly”
