Roy Keane 'still not convinced' by Kobbie Mainoo

Keane highlights 'problem' in Mainoo's game

Manchester United legend Roy Keane has admitted he is still waiting to be fully won over by Kobbie Mainoo, despite the youngster's heroics against Liverpool on Sunday.

Mainoo's match-winning goal not enough for Keane

The former Red Devils captain believes there is still a significant "problem" the midfielder needs to address before he can be considered a top-level talent. Despite Mainoo's match-winning goal in a 3-2 victory over arch-rivals Liverpool that guaranteed Champions League qualification for United, Keane remains a vocal sceptic of the 21-year-old's current standing.
