Roy Keane has labeled Manchester United as 'shameful' after the suffering of another Premier League defeat during the weekend.
For the 16th time this season, the Red Devils were in the wrong end of the score when Brentford triumphed 4-3 on Sunday afternoon 4-3.
United played a much changed side for the collision with Ruben Amorim prioritize with their two-legged Europa League semi-final draw against Athletic Bilbao.
However, the decision of the United Boss has signed the anger of club legend Keane who suggested that it is a 'shame' that Amorim rejects their form of competition.
On the stick to football podcast, brought by Sky Bet, Keane was asked where his frustrations are at United. He said: 'Just with how bad they are!
'They come on my nerves! They keep talking about: “We have a big game next week” and then they don't even try it [in the league].
'[Ian] Wrighty made the point that they have a big second stage … they are 3-0 from the first stage! You will continue to scare these competitions!
'I understand that it is a big game for them, but you just reject these competition matches? They are a shame, absolute shame. Shameful competitions – they have to count their blessings'.
In a later discussion, Keane continued his verbal attack on United. He said: this united team cannot compete! Losing 15 league games, it's a shame. “
Paul Scholes suggested that Ruben Amorim had 'thrown away' the competition, to which Keane replied: 'He has! And the players have!
'United could not handle an extra game? United could not handle a match against F *** ING Brentford?! They are 3-0 from the first stage!
'What will happen next year if they are in the Champions League? Your mentality can only concentrate on one trophy? Do you just remove these competitions?! . '
Scholes replied: “It's like not trying to win these games.” Keane agreed.
Earlier in the week, Ruben Amorim admitted that he is not sure which United will appear on Thursday for the second stage of the semi-final of the Europa League against Bilbao.
After seeing Lyon coming from two goals to lead 4-2 in the quarterfinals in Old Trafford Before Harry Maguire led an injury-time winner, the United Boss does not obtain anything for granted.
“If you look at our team, we can't say today what will happen,” said Amorim, whose side also allowed four in Brentford on Sunday.
'Some teams, the story will be like that and control the story – we can't do that.
'I feel that we have to score to go to the next round. Then we use Brentford, we are near a draw, then we have a goal and another.
'We will have to suffer a little to go to the final, and we are ready to suffer. Sometimes we are one team during the game and we lose ourselves a bit.
'If you look at our season, anything is possible. We must understand that one goal can change everything: the momentum of the game, a shipment, you saw it a week ago. We fight to win the game. We are thinking about winning the game. '
