Roy Keane takes swipe at David de Gea as he slams return of Man United 'circus' vs Liverpool

Roy Keane was extremely critical of Manchester United's senior players following their 7-0 defeat against Liverpool on Sunday, with the former Reds captain aiming a dig at goalkeeper David de Gea.

Erik ten Hag's side fell to their heaviest defeat since Boxing Day in 1931, where they were beaten 7-0 by Wolves. Liverpool were rampant at Anfield, with Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino all scoring during the convincing victory.

After the game, Keane - who was on punditry duty for Sky Sports - slammed the performance of United, with the Irishman taking aim at their leaders in particular. The 51-year-old was quick to criticise Bruno Fernandes and De Gea - both of whom endured an afternoon to forget.

Discussing Liverpool's triumph over the Reds, Keane said: "I can't even remember the goals now there's that many. United were just so naïve and chasing the game, we were watching it live thinking this is going to get really ugly. You've got international players, World Cup winners... it's school boy stuff! You can forgive players having a bad day, but look at this!

"Fernandes' body language today was disgraceful. He's a really talented boy, he's your captain. But his body language, waving his arms not running back, you wouldn't be happy with him. The think I'm always wary of, Man United won the Cup last week, lot of celebrations, of course, never begrudge a team that. They turn up at West Ham, I'm at the game, the circus is back in town at Man United."

Keane was also critical of certain Reds players 'laughing and joking' during the half-time break, while also sarcastically joking about De Gea getting a presentation -
