It&#8217;s All Kicking Off\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Manchester United\u00a0legend Roy Keane blasted Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk as \u2018arrogant\u2019 and \u2018disrespectful\u2019 after the Dutch defender accused the away side of negative tactics in the goalless draw at Anfield.<\/p>\n<p>Liverpool had 34 shots &#8211; 16 more than they racked up in a 7-0 win in this fixture last season &#8211; but could not break down Erik ten Hag\u2019s stubborn defence. And Van Dijk accused United of setting up for a bore draw, saying Liverpool were the only team trying to score.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018How we played the game, having most of the ball, there was only one team that was trying to win the game, unfortunately it didn&#8217;t happen,\u2019 said Van Dijk. \u2018We were superior in all aspects. They are buzzing with a point and we are disappointed.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>It prompted Keane into a furious tirade on Sky and he said: \u2018A lot of arrogance coming out of Van Dijk disrespecting United like that. Maybe that bit of arrogance backfired. He said only one team came to play. United are up against it. Sometimes players need a reminder.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It\u2019s arrogance. You still have to go out and do it. That&#8217;s what the great teams do. Liverpool have won the league once in 30 years. We played Liverpool many times when they were struggling. You find different ways to win a football match.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/17\/19\/79061251-0-image-a-57_1702840968378.jpg\" height=\"430\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Roy Keane accused Liverpool&#8217;s Virgil van Dijk of being arrogant with his post-match comments<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/17\/19\/79061303-12874463-image-a-74_1702841226467.jpg\" height=\"357\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>United legend Keane held a heated on-air debate with ex-Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/17\/19\/79061201-0-image-a-56_1702840910845.jpg\" height=\"500\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Van Dijk suggested Liverpool were the only team that attempted to win the game at Anfield<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018United had one or two chances.

The most important stat is the scoreline.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Liverpool had opportunities and they didn&#8217;t take them. That&#8217;s their own fault, nothing to do with how Manchester United set up or their injuries. I think he&#8217;s out of order.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Former Liverpool striker Sturridge stated his belief that van Dijk didn&#8217;t disrespect United but was instead frustrated with his own team&#8217;s performance.<\/p>\n<p>Sturridge said: &#8216;I don&#8217;t think he did, I don&#8217;t think he dissed Man United. I think every footballer around the world has respect for Man United.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I&#8217;m not going to say he&#8217;s dissing them.
