Roy Keane claims Erik ten Hag decision has 'sent a message' to Manchester United squad

Former midfielder Roy Keane believes Manchester United were right to appoint Erik ten Hag as their manager, insisting he has been a "good fit" for the club.

The Dutchman, who was poached from Ajax, currently has United sat fourth in the Premier League table, only behind Newcastle United in third on goal difference. The Reds have also reached the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup, currently boasting a 3-0 advantage at the halfway stage of their semi-final tie with Nottingham Forest.

At the time of writing, United are still alive and kicking in the FA Cup and will resume their Europa League campaign against Spanish giants Barcelona next month. Though the Reds are not expected to push Arsenal and Manchester City in the battle for the Premier League title, they could still end the campaign by winning three major trophies.
