Keane scathes Mou complaints

FORMER Manchester United captain Roy Keane has launched a scathing attack on Jose Mourinho, questioning whether the Portuguese i s up to the demands of the job.

Keane was speaking as a pundit on ITV after United’s lethargic 1-0 win over Rostov i n the Europa League second leg where Mourinho used his post-match press conference to complain about his side’s crammed fixture list.

The boss said United’s run of games, which will see them play on Monday, Thursday and Sunday this week, proves United have “enemies”.

But Keane ridiculed that opinion, saying: “I’ve never heard so much rubbish in my life. Why do we have to listen to that garbage?

“It’s just utter nonsense what he’s talking about. H e ’s m a n ag e r of Manchester United, one of the biggest clubs on the planet. The squad he’s got, the players, and he keeps moaning about fixtures and fatigue.

“We were just looking at some of the cup draws they’ve had. They’ve had an easy ride in the cups, some good draws, a lot of home draws.

“T h e g u y ’s talking absolute nonsense. I’ve never heard so much rubbish in my life.

“Maybe the club’s too big for him. He can’t deal with all these demands at the match, what matches? Man United reserves could have won that game. I’m sick to death of him.”

United’s move into the quarter-final came at a cost as Paul Pogba and Daley Blind picked up injuries.

Defender Marcos Rojo also appeared to be running on empty and was seen eating a banana passed to him by Ashley Young in the second half in a bid to increase his energy levels.
