Ferguson will have to control Keane, says ex-boss Clough

Legendary boss Brian Clough has urged Alex Ferguson to use his authority to curb the excesses of shamed skipper Roy Keane.

Clough was responsible for bringing Keane to England as an unheralded teenager and developed him into one of the finest players of his generation.

However, the former Nottingham Forest chief believes his protege has gone too far, following his recent controversial revelations by elbowing Jason McAteer in last Saturday’s Premiership clash with Sunderland.
