Keane slams Pogba
Before the most recent Manchester derby, Roy Keane ripped into United midfielder Paul Pogba.
Keane was particularly angry with the Frenchman’s display in Man United’s 4-0 defeat to Everton but clearly isn’t a fan of Pogba full stop.
After listening to a Pogba interview post-Everton, Keane responded with the below rant.

Pogba then put on an average display as United lost 2-0 to Manchester City.

Pogba responds after Chelsea
After losing to City, the Red Devils desperately needed a win vs Chelsea to keep their Champions League hopes alive.
However, United would draw 1-1 with Pogba once again failing to score or assist.
After failing to provide a goal contribution vs Maurizio Sarri’s side, Pogba has now scored just two and assisted none in his last eight league outings.
Both of those goals came from the penalty spot.
With United now three points off 4th spot with two league fixtures left, their top four hopes are pretty much gone.
After the game, Pogba was asked about Roy Keane’s recent comments, to which he responded:
“There’s no problem.
“They can say what they want, they’re paid for that. I’m not paid to speak. I’m paid to be on the pitch and to fight for my team. That’s all.”As quoted by ESPN.
Man United’s last two games of the season see them travel to Huddersfield and then host Cardiff City.
