Never one to mince his words,
Keane has now told United and boss Amorim that they will need to consider major changes this summer. And he was especially critical of the displays of three young stars in
Hojlund, Mainoo and Garnacho after the loss at Stamford Bridge.
After picking them out for criticism, Keane was asked if he would keep the trio – all linked with moves away – this summer.
“No. No, I wouldn’t. I wouldn’t be hanging my hat on them three to get United anywhere,” he said.
“Mainoo came on tonight, and I watched him closely. He’s strolling around, some of his passing was sloppy.
“Garnacho is immature, he plays in little moments, but he doesn’t do enough.
“You want players to turn up week in and week out and he doesn’t do that. He’s a big talent, makes some good runs and on a good day you like what you see. But he’s got too many bad days.”
Keane has previously criticised Hojlund – a £72m signing from Atalanta in summer 2023 – over his struggles this season and he went in even harder over the Dane after Friday’s defeat.
“His runs weren’t right, his hold-up play, his timing. If you’re a striker playing for Man United and you are having one shot on target… we make excuses for him, saying he needs more confidence, but when you are a striker up there, you have to make things happen sometimes.
“What the big clubs have, what United always had, is strikers who can produce something by themselves because they have quality, desire, determination, a bit of experience, football intelligence.
“You don’t see it with Hojlund. he needs a little bit of support, but you need to do better.”
