Responding to criticism he received following his comments that Luis Nani deserved to see red for his aerial challenge on Alvaro Arbeloa, last Tuesday, Keane remarked that there had been ‘a lot of overreaction’ to his comments.
He refused to retract his midweek comments and, instead, highlighted Manchester United’s inability to react to being reduced to 10 men against Real Madrid [United lost 2-1].
He added that the current United squad is the most talented he has seen but he questioned their collective fight.
