Roy Keane has given his verdict on Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay after his performance against Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool at Anfield.
The former United star was very impressed by the display produced by McTominay.
So, what has Roy Keane said about Scott McTominay? Let’s take a look.
Roy Keane praises Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay vs Liverpool
Well, Manchester United have played out a goalless draw with Liverpool away from home at Anfield in the Premier League.
Scott McTominay was the captain for the Red Devils. The Scotland international started in the centre of a three-man attacking midfield in a 4-2-3-1 formation.
McTominay won the toss and told Liverpool to attack the Kop in the first half. That was very clever from the midfielder, and United legend Roy Keane was impressed.

Keane said about McTominay on Sky Sports Premier League (6:40 pm, December 17, 2023): “He has done well. He made a good start by winning the toss.
“I think that was a very good move, very smart of him. He has had his critics, and the whole team have had their critics, but we have to give them credit today.”

Scott McTominay was strongly linked with moves away from Manchester United in the summer of 2023.
There did not appear to be a future for McTominay under manager Erik ten Hag at United, but things have changed now.
Ten Has has completely changed his mind about the Scotland international. The 27-year-old has now established himself as one of the most important players in the United midfield.
McTominay is not a flashy player. He is a very honest and hard-working footballer who always gives his all.
I do not think that the Scotland international is world class or will ever become one, but for United right now, he is a very important player. Fans can always expect them to give his all whenever he is on the pitch.
