Kilbane hits out at Keane over McGeady criticism

The former Republic of Ireland winger believes that the Boys in Green assistant manager was 'bang out of order' when criticising Aiden McGeady

Kevin Kilbane feels that Republic of Ireland assistant manager Roy Keane will alienate himself from the Boys in Green squad by criticising the players.

Keane singled out Everton winger Aiden McGeady after Tuesday's 2-1 friendly defeat to Belarus, but Kilbane believes Keane's comments were unnecessary .

"For someone not in the know, they would think we are talking about the Republic of Ireland manager here, but Roy Keane is the assistant manager, that is the point," Kilbane told BBC Radio 5.
