Keane is fit for FA Cup, says Fergie

Alex Ferguson has revealed he expects Roy Keane to lead Manchester United into their FA Cup final with Millwall on Saturday.

The 32-year-old midfielder has been struggling with a hamstring injury and has not played since United’s defeat to Liverpool on April 24.

However, Keane has trained for the last three days without a problem and is now set to become the first player since the Second World War to play in six finals.

“He has trained for the last three days, has suffered no reaction so far and I don’t expect he will have one,” said the United boss.

“You always want your best players on the pitch and he is still the biggest influence on our team.

“He is our captain, he has been there more times than anyone else and it is natural we would want him there.”

Keane’s presence has left Ferguson with a selection dilemma.

Ferguson already knows the side he will pick this weekend and that is likely to mean bad news for either Darren Fletcher or Phil Neville, one of whom looks certain to drop out of the side which defeated Aston Villa last Saturday.
