Keane joined Wright, Gary Neville and Jill Scott to discuss United’s recent form.
The 53-year-old went off on an explosive monologue, hitting out at United’s flops following a dreadful season.
And he singled out captain Bruno Fernandes – much to Wrighty’s displeasure.
Ruben Amorim‘s men are languishing 14th in the Premier League, with just 9 wins from 27 games.
Keane fumed on Stick To Football, brought to you by Sky Bet: “You go back to the recruitment and the team.
“Show a bit of fight, a bit of speed, a bit of quality in your play.
“They draw at Everton and it’s like they’ve won the cup. It’s f***ing bizarre.
“Even the fans. I see fans at matches, and they sing for Bruno [Fernandes]. I see these boys, I think they’re f***ing imposters.”
Wright interjected: “No bro, not Bruno.”
Keane flopped back in his chair and snarled: “You know what Wrighty? I’ve had enough of that rubbish man.

“You watch Arsenal every week, I’m focusing on United.
“Sit and watch a game. Sit and watch a game with him [playing].
“We watched [Fernandes] in the cup at Leicester. Watched him at Everton last Saturday.
“People [including him] are pretending to be closing people down.”
Wright continued to push his point, claiming Fernandes had the talent to “save” United from their slump.
A staggered Keane hit back: “They’re 15th in the league. And he’s saving them?! Praise the Lord.
“Talent is not enough. You keep coming back to talent. Bruno is a talented player, but talent is not enough.”
Still Wright continued to back Bruno, claiming United would be in the relegation zone if Fernandes wasn’t involved.
A now shouting Keane continued: “Leadership is about action.”
Man Utd ratings vs Ipswich as Maguire saves the day after Onana makes case to be WORST ever signing
MANCHESTER UNITED eased their fears of the drop in a topsy-turvy relegation six-pointer with Ipswich.
The Red Devils triumphed 3-2 despite playing the second half with ten men.
A major cock-up from Patrick Dorgu and Andre Onana saw Ipswich take a third-minute lead through Jaden Philogene.
Then, after United had recovered to lead 2-1, Dorgu saw a straight red card for a poor challenge on Omari Hutchinson.
Philogene scored again to level it before the break only for Harry Maguire to nod in to be United’s saviour.
But who was United’s best player on the night?

But Wright countered: “Bruno does action. Maybe you don’t like his petulance. I’m not having Bruno being dug out.”
Former Lioness Scott attempted to get involved, but Keane fired one final rant in Fernandes’ direction, slamming him for failing to be an enforcer in the United midfield.
He fumed to Wright: “I’ve asked you a question, who [else] would you start going ‘He’s got to do a bit more’?
“When [all United players] go out on that pitch, show some courage, want the ball.
“When you close somebody down, close them down properly!
“Let me tell you something, when you close somebody down, this is what I call a bluffer, I’m closing you down, but I’m not really closing you down and you pass it. They will say ‘I’ve done my bit!’
“F*** off! Excuse my language.”
Keane’s passionate rant quickly went viral, racking up over 1.5 million views in less than six hours.
One fan gasped on X: “Who wouldn’t have that rant as an alarm call. You wouldn’t want to press snooze.”
Another said: “Spot on by Roy.. leadership by example. You can’t be showing exasperation and despair on the pitch almost all the time when things are not working.”
While a third laughed: “Roy Keane wants a starting XI of Conor Gallaghers.”
But a fourth countered: “Roy has no right to go after Bruno like that, he is a great captain.”
