Man City were completely dominant against the Red Devils as Pep Guardiola outfoxed tactically his opposite Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Eric Bailly scored an own goal to hand the visitors the lead inside 14 minutes of action before Bernardo Silva doubled the advantage on the stroke of halftime.

While there were no goals recorded in the second half, there was nothing pleasant to write home about for United, with the defeat further compounding Solskjaer's woes at the club.

Reacting to the loss, Keane noted the trio of Bailly, Scott McTominay is not good enough for the club.

"It’s just so poor. I look for characters. [Scott] McTominay and Fred… I know McTominay is learning his trade, but these players aren’t good enough for Manchester United," Metro UK quoted Keane saying.
"Defensively, I wasn’t shocked when [Eric] Bailly sliced one into his own net, he’s got that in him, he’s erratic. Fred’s playing for Manchester United… Fred! Anyone who thinks he’s good enough for United is in cuckoo land," he added.

The former United skipper went on to claim the City defeat was more painful than the 5-0 drubbing by Liverpool two weeks ago.

Bruno slams United defense

Earlier, TUKO.co.ke reported Bruno Fernandes has appeared to shoulder blame on Man United's defense following their defeat to Man City.

Reacting to the loss, Fernandes took issue with United's defense, slamming them for conceding "easy goals" as he hailed David de Gea for making incredible saves that kept them in the game.

“It’s always a bad time to concede a goal but the problem is the way we concede goals. It’s too easy. As I said, many, many times, if not for David, the result could be much higher and worse for us," Bruno said.
