Roy Keane has condemned Tottenham full-backs Serge Aurier and Danny Rose as “Dumb and Dumber” after their performances in the 2-1 loss at Liverpool.

Both players struggled to contend with their opposite numbers Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson, with the Ivorian conceding a penalty for a foul on Sadio Mane.

Mohamed Salah converted the spot kick to clinch victory and Keane was especially contemptuous when analysing their contributions.

“The two Tottenham full-backs were dreadful. Dumb and Dumber, I’d call them,” Keane told Sky Sports.

“I thought they were really poor. You can’t compare them to Liverpool, the two lads who are absolutely fantastic.

“Particularly going forward, okay defensively there’s parts of the games they can improve on, but going forward they’re absolutely fantastic.”

While Gary Neville attempted to defend the pair, suggesting Mauricio Pochettino’s set-up hurt them.

“I didn’t think they were helped by the narrowness,” Neville added. “Eriksen and Son in those wide areas – Son did it a lot better than Eriksen.

“Eriksen didn’t want to be there, so it just opened up the pass all the way and they were exposed.”
