Roy Keane has delivered his assessment of Ruben Amorim dropping Marcus Rashford from his Manchester United squad against Manchester City.
Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho were both left out of the Man United squad for Sunday's derby against Man City.
Speaking before kick-off, Amorim explained why he made the ruthless decision.
The Portuguese boss also revealed how he relayed the information to the Man Utd duo.

In the Sky Sports studio, Keane called it a 'big call' but insists it's not a 'big surprise' as both players have been 'poor' in recent games.
"It is a big call. He [Ruben Amorim] has obviously seen something he doesn't like," he said.
"For those who have watched Manchester United recently, it's not a big surprise because both players [Rashford and Garnacho] have been poor. He [Ruben Amorim] has said 'enough is enough'. It's a big call, but I like to see it - he has put down a marker."
Keane also urged Rashford to move on from Man United, claiming a transfer away from Old Trafford would 'suit the player'.
"A move for Marcus [Rashford] would suit the player - a new challenge for him," he added. "He’s been there a long time. When you’re at a big club and your attitude is not right - and it hasn’t been great recently - sometimes it’s good to part ways."
Rashford has been linked with a move away from Man United, with a report claiming the club would be open to offers for their academy graduate.
The 27-year-old has spent his entire career at Man United, having graduated from the youth academy before breaking into the first-team.
He has made 426 appearances across all competitions, scoring 138 goals.
During his time at the club, he's helped his side win two FA Cups, two EFL Cups and the Europa League.
