After the win over relegation threatened Everton, Ten Hag, who was signed from Dutch club, Ajax, in the summer, blamed United’s busy schedule for the injury.
Reacting to his comment, Keys on BeIN SPORTS, reminded the Dutchman he is now in the EPL and urged him to return to the Dutch league if he does not like how the English league is run.
