Shut it, Keane! Former Manchester United team-mate Dwight Yorke hits out at ranting Roy and tells Irishman to 'tone back' his criticism of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side

Dwight Yorke says his former Manchester United team-mate and Sunderland manager Roy Keane should tone down his criticism when analysing Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side on television.

Keane's rant about David de Gea after the goalkeeper's gaffe against Tottenham two weeks ago was typical of the Irishman, who claimed he would have been swinging punches at half-time.

Yet Yorke says Keane should remember he made mistakes as a player, too, and that this tendency to fly off the handle was one of his downfalls as a manager.
