Roy Keane Reveals the Biggest Worry For Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United This Season

Manchester United are in a bad place at the moment. Things have not worked out as planned for the club, with the team going through a disastrous campaign. While manager Erik ten Hag has tried his best to get things back on track, all his efforts have been in vain so far. In his recent appearance at Sky Sports, before United’s game against Liverpool, former club captain Roy Keane talked about the team’s performance while speaking about his biggest worry around the club.

Fans are growing frustrated with every game, as Manchester United fail to produce positive results on a consecutive basis. The side’s last game against Bayern Munich saw them suffer a 1-0 defeat, putting an end to their misery in the UEFA Champions League and knocking them out of Europe entirely. United finished at the bottom of the points table, conceding the most goals out of any side in their group.

Roy Keane talks about his biggest worry concerning Manchester United

The ex-Manchester United skipper was present at Sky Sports pre-match broadcast before United visit Anfield to take on Liverpool. During the show when Keane was asked to point, out what was wrong with United, to which Keane stated, “Everyone is looking for answers outside the club, but sometimes you have to look for answers within the dressing room. Find something from within, whatever that may be. But it doesn’t look good for United. The biggest worry for me when I look at the stats of Man United is the lack of goals, you know. Big big issue.”

When asked if Keane felt the side had a chance at beating Liverpool, the ex-United skipper stated, “No, not with the form. Again, as Gary mentioned, there is always a bit of hope. We are getting stats thrown at us every other week. We know the stats are very, very bad for Man United at the moment. But you have to turn up as a team. Every week there is an issue at Man United.”

There is a lot of weight behind Keane’s weight as the side has failed to position themselves as a threat in the attacking third. United’s forwards have struggled to find the back of the net, with the numbers portraying the team’s misery.

United desperately looking for goals as Hojlund continues to fire blanks

Manchester United has scored just thirty-three goals across all competitions, which has to be the biggest worry for the team this season. The team’s twenty-four games have been almost devoid of goals from United’s end as mid-fielder Scott McTominay has been the team’s top goal-scorer this season with 6 goals to his name.

Striker Rasmus Hojlund, who was signed for a massive fee, has failed to deliver in the Premier League with the Danish striker yet to find his first goal for the club in league competition. Hojlund’s all five goals have come for the team in the Champions League. The player will have to step up the game in the coming encounters if United wants to have any chance at making a dent in their opponents’ defense.
