Roy Keane warns Arsenal that their Community Shield victory over Manchester City will have 'no bearing going forward' in their bid to challenge for the Premier League trophy once more... but admits Mikel Arteta's men will get a boost from Wembley win

Roy Keane played down Arsenal's victory over Manchester City in the Community Shield, dismissing the season-opening fixture as a 'friendly match'.

City hunted down the Gunners last season to win a third consecutive Premier League title, and looked set to overcome Mikel Arteta's side again at Wembley when Cole Palmer gave them a 77th-minute lead.

However, a Leandro Trossard equaliser in the 11th minute of second half stoppage time levelled the game before penalty misses from Kevin De Bruyne and Rodri handed Arsenal the win.

The Arsenal players, including record signing Declan Rice, celebrated on the Wembley turf afterwards, but Manchester United legend Keane was not overly impressed by the achievement.
