Roy still Keane as ever: Cole

SUNDERLAND striker Andy Cole insists manager Roy Keane has not changed one bit since the days when they stood shoulder to shoulder at Manchester United.

Keane has cultivated a calmer approach to football since stepping into management at the Stadium of Light, although his joy at Anthony Stokes’ injury-time winner against Derby on Saturday was there for all to see.

But while he may be a model of control in public, his 36-year-old former team-mate insists the passion and commitment which characterised his playing days still burn brightly.
