​Man Utd legend Keane: Tough days ahead for Solskjaer without signings | OneFootball

Manchester United legend Roy Keane is predicting a tough season for his old team.

Keane has always been a vocal critic of United in the past, especially since the retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson.

And the Irishman believes manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer may struggle this term, given the lack of transfer activity at the club.

United have only signed Ajax's Donny van de Beek this summer.

Keane said on Sky Sports: "Yeah, I think so [United could miss top four, resulting in Solskjaer getting the sack].

"If you're the manager of Man United, and they can invest in the next week and buy one or two... if they don't invest in the next week, then it's tough days ahead."

Regarding Solskjaer's specific targets, Keane said: "The remit will be different for Ole this year.

"I think last year, it was about getting into the top four - I know they got to three semi-finals - but it will be higher this year.

"They will certainly have to get a bit closer to Liverpool and Manchester City. The points total cannot be the same as it has been over the past three or four years.

"Ole will probably have to get his hands on a trophy. I think the honeymoon period is certainly over for Ole, and the pressure starts to mount now, particularly with the performances like that over the last week or so."
