Ruben Amorim‘s side gave the league leaders a real run for their money and should’ve left Anfield with all three points.
Club legend Keane was impressed by the performance but was quick to stick the boot into the players for not being consistent with their displays.
The Sky Sports pundit said: “We have seen these performances from them before but the problem is they don’t do it week in week out.
“They are very inconsistent. Look at the league table and the goals against. It’s so bad it’s unbelievable.
“You ask for honesty from your group of players…but I don’t think this group of players are honest.
“If you’re not putting in a performance week in week out there is something amiss.
“But look, it was surprise to me. They turned up. They showed a bit of passion.
“They done it at City recently. You can’t just pick and choose when you want to turn up when you’re Man United.”

Keane’s frustrations were echoed by Amorim, who said: “I get more mad because of the other games.
“It’s even harder to understand some things.
“This is not about the system, the technique, it’s about something else…
“I am upset today, really upset. I am pleased with the performance but everyone today is going to say that the team did a good job.
“Today I am allowed to be the only guy upset with the team — but today we were a team.
“We had some good games during this last month but then we dropped again.
“It’s something that we need to be really consistent.
“We had this talk after (winning against) Manchester City, it was the same.
“I want to see my team play so much better.
“But I think the most important thing to address today is the mentality and that is the key for everything.
“Today we were a different team not because of the system, not because of a technical or tactical aspect.
“We faced the competition in the way we are supposed to face every day.
“Training and match, it doesn’t match the place, the opponent, we need to face every day like that.”
Manchester United will be back in action on Sunday, travelling to the Emirates to take on Arsenal in their FA Cup third-round tie.
