Roy Keane brutally calls out United flop after nightmare debut against Newcastle, says he has no common sense to survive in the Premier League.
Manchester United’s problems between the posts have reached a new low — and Roy Keane isn’t staying quiet about it. The outspoken former captain delivered a brutal assessment of the club’s latest goalkeeper after an error-filled debut against Newcastle left both fans and pundits stunned.
What was supposed to be a fresh start turned into a disaster almost immediately. Attempting to play out from the back under pressure, the new shot-stopper hesitated, lost his footing, and gifted Newcastle an easy goal in a moment that left even the most patient supporters in disbelief.
After the final whistle, Keane vented his frustration on Sky Sports. According to him, any doubts about André Onana being the problem have now vanished, as the new arrival is proving even worse. “At least Onana showed a bit of presence. This one’s got none — no composure, no sense of awareness, nothing. You won’t last long in the Premier League playing like that,” Keane snapped.
It didn’t take long for the internet to react. Within minutes, footage of the blunder was everywhere, sparking an avalanche of criticism. Fans questioned whether United’s recruitment team had lost all sense of judgment, while some went as far as suggesting the new keeper should be dropped immediately — if not offloaded in the next transfer window. One furious supporter remarked that the player might have already wrecked his Manchester United career before it even had a chance to begin.
All of this has added to the growing pressure on Erik ten Hag, who’s already scrambling to steady a team showing cracks in every department. With constant defensive mistakes and a goalkeeper devoid of confidence, the problems at Old Trafford seem deeper than ever.
Once a position of reliability and pride, the goalkeeper’s spot has become a weekly source of chaos. And judging by Keane’s furious post-match comments, this latest signing could very well go down as one of the poorest decisions in Manchester United’s recent history.
