I don't think they have shown the leadership. "The biggest disappointment for me when they have had these disappointments is the reaction. "When he comes in they have to get the recruitment right, he has to get players in and the right players through the door because the last few years just have not been good enough. They are going to invest, they are going to get players in, they are going to get stronger. "We talk about Manchester United rebuilding as if Liverpool and Manchester City are going to take it easy over the summer. The biggest problem for Manchester United is where Manchester City are, where Liverpool are. Even last season Ole finishing second and you're thinking he's doing well, there is such a big gap.
"It is the points tally that worries me because they are so far behind. Maybe the new manager coming is a good time because I always think, you cannot get any worse. We know it is a long way back for Manchester United but of course there is a way back.

Perusing the list of deficits since Sir Alex Ferguson last delivered the title in 2013, Keane stressed that the quality of the opposition is a big problem for United. The task ahead of Ten Hag is not just to climb the table but ultimately to close what has become a vast gap to the teams chasing the Premier League title.įor the third season in four, United are likely to finish more than 25 points behind the champions.

"That is the only thing you can point to," said Neville. Was their arrival part of the problem, perhaps? Keane: Rangnick experiment hasn't workedĬristiano Ronaldo, Raphael Varane and Jadon Sancho were signed last summer with many expecting to see an improvement.That is a bad reflection on the players - the senior players and the younger ones who think they have made it and are players." "We have seen Manchester United through the season, when things have gone against them, that is it, they throw the towel in. "Whatever about the talent and the board room and who the manager is, you have to have a decent dressing room, decent personalities, decent characters. "If you have not got a decent dressing room, forget about it, you are in trouble anyway," said the former United captain. Keane reiterated the importance of character. It feels like we have been talking about it a lot this season." We were not talking about that in the last two seasons.
