Manchester United News Roundup: Roy Keane critical of 2 players despite the win, United want £71m-rated La Liga winger - 29th November 2020

Manchester United came back from 0-2 down to secure an impressive 3-2 victory against Southampton in the 2020-21 Premier League. Edinson Cavani, who came on in the second half, scored the winner in injury time.

On that note, here is the latest from Old Trafford on the 29th of November, 2020.

Roy Keane critical of two Manchester United players despite the win

David de Gea of Manchester United

Roy Keane was unhappy with Fred and David de Gea in the lead-up to Southampton's second goal against Manchester United. The former Manchester United captain praised James Ward-Prowse for the free-kick but expected the United goalkeeper to save it.

Keane said in this regard:

"Well, I'd be more critical of Fred, I think Fred gave away the free kick. De Gea, again, I still don't expect my goalkeeper to be beaten from there; I really don't. Fantastic set-piece, the pace he gets on it and the accuracy, he's certainly one of the best in Europe at the moment with that type of delivery."

The Irishman, however, praised the contributions of new signing Cavani. The Manchester United number 7 scored two and set up another after coming on in the second half.

"Yeah, he was slow getting onto the pitch with them boots. Just as well he did score because how the guy is not prepared and ready to go on, it's mind-boggling. Obviously, he didn't need the boots in the end, scored with two headers, but a great contribution when he came on," said Keane about Cavani.

Keane continued in this regard:

"It was a great contribution when he came on. He still has great quality as well as hunger and desire. It was a gamble when he came to the club. We saw some bits of Cavani and wondered if he’s still got it. He proved at Southampton (that) he has. He could be a huge signing for Manchester United."
