Roy Keane involved in exchange with fan after Manchester derby

Keane didn’t sound too happy.

Former Manchester United midfielder Roy Keane became involved in a heated debate with a fan whilst signing autographs after Saturday’s Manchester derby.

Man United suffered a 0-2 defeat in the match. After the game, Keane still took the time to sign autographs with eager fans outside Old Trafford. However, things turned tense.

It is unclear what sparked the back-and-forth between Keane and a disgruntled passer by – the majority of which was caught on camera by the drizzle-soaked crowd. Keane was signing an autograph for another fan when the incident occured.

The former United captain then swiftly made his exit, walking off and disappearing into the crowd.

Keane is generally regarded as someone that will stop and sign a few autographs, but he looks like he had to get going yesterday.

“It felt worse [than the defeat to Liverpool],” Keane said about Man United’s loss to the Premier League champions.

“The goal just before half-time meant it was game all over.

“Man City are a different type of team to Liverpool. They were quite happy just to keep the ball and they just toyed with Man United.

“It was so poor. The difference in class, quality and decision making, basically everything.

“I know the old saying is men vs boys, but United are so off it, it’s unbelievable.”

“If you’ve got bluffers on the bus with you, and you’re dependant on Shaw and Wan-Bissaka, Ole you might be better of out of it,” he said about the United players and the club’s under-pressure manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
