"If he's a Man United player, I'm a Chinaman" - Roy Keane on Ashley Young

Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane has branded Ashley Young a "disgrace" after his latest efforts to win a penalty against CSKA Moscow on Tuesday night.

Keane was speaking last night on ITV's Champions League highlights show with presenter Mark Pougatch and former Arsenal defender Lee Dixon when he was asked about Young's antics.

"I just hope players are getting a hold of him - whether it be the manager or some of the senior players. That shouldn't be accepted at Man United. That's absolutely disgraceful.

When asked by by Pougatch if Young was leaving his leg loose and looking for contact, Keane was not impressed. "That's not leaving your leg in, that's different. When he does leave his leg in, the party piece afterwards is the triple somersault he does. He's a disgrace."

"Get hold of him, say 'you don't behave like that playing for Man United. He's done it nine or ten times and he has done it at his previous clubs"

Keane's comments grabbed headlines as a result of the terms he used to describe the incident however, saying "if he’s a Manchester United player, I’m a Chinaman. It's absolutely disgraceful". 

Clearly, he's never watched The Big Lebowski.
