The Red Devils were beaten comprehensively 2-0 by the Hammers at the London Stadium.
And with the result, United remain outside the top four on eight points, with Keane responding angrily to the performance.
“I am shocked and saddened about how bad Manchester United were today,” Keane told Sky Sports.
“They were lacklustre, there was no quality, a lack of desire, a lack of leaders, a lack of characters.
“It’s a long way back for United. It’s scary how far they’ve fallen.”
While former manager Jose Mourinho could not take any positives from the match for United.
“No, I can’t find (any positives),” Mourinho admitted. ”We were bad last season, but I don’t see any improvement this season.
“Even with three new players. Players with a positive impact, I like the three, I think they bring good quality to the team, but the team is the team I don’t like before.
“I don’t think you can take any positives from that.”
