Man Utd are making huge changes ahead of Sir Jim Ratcliffe coming into the club | Football Digest<\/h3>\n

Erik ten Hag heaped praise on Bruno Fernandes for his captain’s contribution against Everton, handing Marcus Rashford the penalty in Manchester United’s 3-0 win. But Roy Keane blasted the United manager’s comments at Goodison Park, landing a reality check after the club’s best triumph this season.<\/p>\n

The visitors received the chance to double their advantage after Alejandro Garnacho’s sensational early opener when former captain Ashley Young felled Anthony Martial in the penalty area.<\/p>\n

Fernandes is United’s primary penalty taker but gave the ball to the low-confidence Rashford, who had scored just once before the trip to Merseyside.<\/p>\n

The 26-year-old struck home before Martial added a late third, earning Ten Hag’s side their first league win by more than a one-goal margin this term.<\/p>\n

Ten Hag lauded Fernandes’ show of leadership in his post-match interview. “You see how great a captain Bruno is. Bruno would net, definitely, but he has the confidence in Rashy,” the Dutchman said.<\/p>\n

But Keane wasn’t impressed with the 53-year-old singling out Fernandes for praise, instead insisting that his focus should be on improving United’s record against top-half Premier League sides.<\/p>\n

“He’s given credit to Bruno for passing on the ball for the penalty; absolute bloody rubbish. Absolute rubbish coming out with that,” Keane told Sky Sports after full-time.<\/p>\n

“It’s not been good enough where they’ve been, obviously, with the talent they’ve got.<\/p>\n

“Mentally, looking at the stats, they’re upbeat after today’s game, but if you’re playing for Man United, that record [vs top-half clubs] certainly has to improve.<\/p>\n

“United are sixth in the table now, and there’s been a nice improvement, but they’re still a way off the other top teams.<\/p>\n

“But they’ve got themselves in a nice position, but the reason you’re playing for Man United is to compete against the top teams.<\/p>\n
