Keane is simply the best, claims Ferguson

HAVING laid down the law to his big-earning stars with a timely reminder of his own determination to succeed, Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson will take a keen interest in attitude and commitment within the Old Trafford ranks over the next few weeks.

But if there is one man who can be relied on to carry the fight and be assured of giving every last drop of sweat and blood for the Red Devils' cause, it is Roy Keane.

When Ferguson claimed last season's failure to win a trophy had come because his squad fortified by new, large contracts and in the belief that their demanding manager was about to depart had momentarily taken their eye off the ball, one man received complete exoneration Keane.
