Robin van Persie critical of teammates

Van Persie critical of teammates

Manchester United striker Robin van Persie has criticised his teammates for getting in his way as they fell to a 2-0 defeat away to Olympiacos in the Champions League on Tuesday.

The Dutch striker bemoaned his colleagues' movement after the game and said that they forced him to alter his own "tactics".

He is quoted as saying by NOS: "It was quite difficult because my teammates are often in the area where I want to play. This makes it difficult for me.

"That's why I have to change my tactics. Unfortunately, they are often in my area.

"It was much too slow today and we only had one shot on target in the whole match against Olympiacos, which is far too little. Everyone is very disappointed."

Meanwhile, Red Devils legend Roy Keane slammed the performance after the game.
