Roy Keane saved Rasmus Hojlund, Kobbie Mainoo and Alejandro Garnacho and suggested that almost all the players of Manchester United could leave if clubs wanted him – but Ruben Amorim defended the Denmark striker after shooting another white in Chelsea.
The head of Marc Cucurella’s 71st minute turned out to be the only goal of the Premier League match in Stamford Bridge while United prefaced his Europa League final against Tottenham in Bilbao on Wednesday (8:00 p.m. BST) with his 18th defeat of the season of the season, producing a lonely shot on the target.
“Garnacho has just run it,” said the legend of United, Keane about the winner of Cucurella, addressing Sky Sports. “He does not attack him, he is not aggressive.
“They have no attacker. [Hojlund] looked like a young child for Chelsea who had just left the academy. His shopping was not right, his timing, his hold-up game.
“We continue to apologize for him and talk about confidence, but when you are an attacker up there, you sometimes have to do something.”

Rasmus Hojlund Statistics: “Not enough”
Hojlund joined United for values that could reach 72 million pounds from Atalanta in August 2023, but only scored four times in 31 championship games this season, including a 13 -game race without a high -level goal that lasts more than three months.
“The big clubs and United have always had attackers who can create something even when they do not get excellent service because they have a little quality, desire, determination, experience, football intelligence,” said Keane, who won the title seven times at the club between 1994 and 2003.
“We don’t see that with Hojlund. He needs a little support but my God, sometimes you have to do a little better.
“Hojlund should be a third or fourth attacker of choice and learn his compromise from brilliant.
Amorim: Hojlund “improvement”
The manager of United, Ruben Amorim, said that he was “really happy” with HojlundWho is part of a team during a championship race of seven games without victory.
“The whole team must improve but [I like] The way he runs, fights for each ball and loses many duels, wins duels, “added the Portuguese, who was appointed in November but accepted that he could leave the club if the results do not improve soon.
“He must improve the connection, but he improves. He must simply continue to work hard and the better days will come. ”
“It helped me choose the departure XI” 👀

Man United Transfers
Keane had trouble appoing a united player who would not be available for the right price this summer, which precedes a Champions League campaign if she wins the Europa League.
“Bruno [Fernandes] comes to mind because he is a brilliant player, “said the former Uni captain.” We’re talking about Garnacho, you look [Harry] Maguire.
“There is a big decision on the goalkeeper [Andre Onana]. You need a world class attacker. But who happens for these players.
“Garnacho, Mainoo, Hojlund – I would not be suspended my hat on these three. Mainoo was walking around the place, some of his passes were sloppy. Garnacho is immature … He does not show up weekly.”
The defender of England Maguire had an early masterful finish for the offside against Chelsea, meeting the delivery of Bruno Fernandes from the left with a first thunderous strike inside the box before his celebrations were ultimately considered futile following a video assistant referee (Var) and a semi-automated offside control.
