FORMER IRELAND SKIPPER Roy Keane was back in the north-east of England last night as he watched former club Sunderland overcome neighbours Middlesbrough in their FA Cup fourth-round replay.
And the Corkman had some words of advice for another old friend after he watched the game from ITV’s stadium studio.
Former Manchester United team-mate Wayne Rooney should ”keep his nose out” of debate over the identity of the new England manager, Keane said.
Rooney made his preference for Harry Redknapp clear last night through Twitter.
“Wayne should keep his nose out of it,” Keane said. “I don’t think he done enough on the pitch when Capello was manager with some of his own behaviour.”
Keane also expressed his admiration for the way Capello “stuck to his guns” after criticising the FA for removing John Terry from the national team captaincy without consulting him.

could’nt agree more focus on the football Wayne and co.
Capello’s not the first Italian to desert a sinking ship…
Well said Roy…
Keane is a Rebel…and he stands up to Bullies
Right message delivered by the wrong messenger.
Was that a deliberate mis-quote? ‘I don’t think he done enough” doesn’t read as well as “He didn’t do enough” does, but it’s what Roy said. Stir that S**t, Journal.
Time to get your ears checked.
Well, they’ve changed it in the article. So either the Journal’s hearing is as bad as mine, or the system works.
Hes dead right ,Rooney was crap in the world cup and now thinks he should have an opinion on who is the next England manager .
I’m more worried about whether day follows night than about who’ll be the next England manager.
