Roy Keane slammed Manchester United's senior players after their 7-0 thrashing at Liverpool.

The scoreline was the biggest in the history of the fixture.

Former United captain Keane said: "A shocking day. The senior players were embarrassing. They didn't show any leadership skills.

"A really tough day for Man Utd and thank goodness I have never been part of losing like that.

"The players will be ashamed when the going got tough, they went missing.

"When United come to Anfield all logic goes out of the window. It is the hardest place to come – they didn't show any pride or fight.

"Liverpool were absolutely amazing though, their desire, their energy. Liverpool were back to their very best but it was an embarrassing day for United.

"I never thought United were back to their very best. They have been giving teams chances but today Liverpool didn't let them off the hook.

"They were clinical and ruthless and kept going.

"The senior players for Manchester United are the ones who let the club down today. As a player, you would go into hiding. It is embarrassing for the players."
