Roy Keane worried about Manchester United at Liverpool FC as he makes 'silly hats' claim

Roy Keane has criticised Manchester United players for wearing 'silly hats' ahead of their clash at Liverpool.

The United great explained why he is feeling 'worried' about his old team's chances at Anfield and he took aim at Luke Shaw ahead of kick-off.

Keane said that he was confident when he turned up to Anfield but after looking at the players warming up, he admits it left him feeling unsure about United's chances.

The former club captain is on punditry duties for the match at Liverpool and he was touching on the loss of Marcus Rashford to injury when he went on a 'silly hats' tangent.

"It’s a different game today. You can’t really compare it to the game at Old Trafford, with (Marcus) Rashford missing as well," Keane told Sky Sports.

"He’s such a big loss, I can see why Ole (Gunnar Solskjaer) is doing it but when I see people like (Luke) Shaw coming back into the team, the nearer we’re getting to kick-off, the more worried I am getting.

"Two hours ago I was fine. The more I look at the players and the more I see them warming up and their silly hats, I’m worried. I’ve heard Ole getting interviewed there and the mindset is 'let’s not get beaten' and that negative talk already."
