Roy Keane completes U-turn on Man United's Fred after goal against Leeds on Sunday, admitting the midfielder has 'improved his end-product' - since ex-Red Devils skipper said in November: 'Anyone who thinks he's good enough is living in cuckoo land!'

Roy Keane completed a U-turn on Manchester United midfielder Fred on Sunday after scathing criticism of the Brazilian back in November.

Fred came on as a second-half substitute for United against Leeds on Sunday and, with the score deadlocked at 2-2, scored a crucial third with a smart near-post finish.

The 28-year-old also scored in Ralf Rangnick's first official game in charge back in December against Crystal Palace and speaking on Sky Sports after United's victory over Leeds, former Red Devils captain Keane praised Fred while joking about his past criticism.
