The former midfielder claims the Portugal worldwide can 'get away with it' when United are performing properly however when his previous aspect are struggling, it becomes an enormous concern.
'In case you watch him [Bruno Fernandes] at worldwide degree, he does the same [with floating around in different positions],' Keane advised Stick to Football.
'It may possibly't all be the coaches and managers. There is a player on the market and if he's doing all that stuff and producing magic, you virtually forgive him.
