Former Manchester United star Wes Brown picked a shock name as his hardest team-mate, and did not mention Roy Keane. Instead of the fiery former captain, Brown, who also played for the likes of Sunderland and Blackburn Rovers, instead chose Keane's midfield partner, who was more known for his tidy passing than his temper.

Former Manchester United defender Wes Brown has backed Roy Keane to make a sensational return to management — this time as a more balanced figure ready to lead the Republic of Ireland. Brown believes Keane’s intensity has mellowed with time and experience, making him perfectly placed to inject passion and discipline into an Irish side struggling for identity and direction.

Manchester United legend Roy Keane has named a manager with a "big personality" who would "create havoc" as an ideal replacement for Ruben Amorim. The Portuguese tactician has won a paltry 29 per cent of his Premier League games since taking charge nearly a year ago, and though Sir Jim Ratcliffe insists he’ll be given time, fans aren’t buying it.

Ex-Tottenham midfielder Jamie O'Hara has called for Manchester United to hire former captain Roy Keane as manager, in a bid to reverse the Red Devils' atrocious form under Ruben Amorim. The talkSPORT pundit lauded the fiery Irishman for his leadership skills, saying the 58-year-old would "not allow poor standards". O'Hara did acknowledge the club was highly unlikely to make the move, however.

Former Newcastle and England star Alan Shearer has responded to recent comments made by Roy Keane branding him "sneaky and nasty". Shearer laughed off the criticism, while Gary Lineker suggested that the Manchester United legend is trying to generate publicity for his own podcast by targeting him.
