ROY KEANE was in no mood to ask Christian Eriksen any questions following Manchester United’s win over Arsenal.

Eriksen scored a hat-trick to end Ireland’s hopes of qualifying for the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
So it made for hilarious viewing when the midfielder joined Keane and the rest of the Sky Sports team at Old Trafford.
Eriksen helped anchor a 3-1 win over Arsenal and was prepared to answer questions from the punditry team.
But Keane joked: “I have no question to ask you because I’m still upset over Dublin when you scored for Denmark.”
Eriksen replied: “Yeah, I thought so.”
And Keane said: “I’m still upset you with you.”
Keeping up the banter, Eriksen quipped: “It’s a good night out as well, Dublin.”
And Keane agreed: “Yeah, I bet you did.”

Eriksen joined United and new manager Erik ten Hag in the summer following a successful loan spell at Brentford last season.
And he played a major part in the home win against league leaders Arsenal as Ten Hag hailed his side’s performance.
He told the BBC: “We are happy and satisfied with the win, also the performance against a really good team – they played really well.”
