'Sloppy' and 'inconsistent' Man Utd target Rice slammed by Keane
The former Red Devil, who coached the West Ham star with Ireland, said there was a laundry list of deficiencies in his game
Roy Keane has said that West Ham and England midfielder Declan Rice has a long way to go to become the finished article.
Rice has been linked with a move to Keane’s former club Manchester United, and plays as a defensive midfielder, the position the no-nonsense Irishman occupied as captain of Sir Alex Ferguson’s juggernaut in the 1990’s and early 2000’s.
More recently Keane took a role as Martin O'Neill’s assistant with the Republic of Ireland and saw Rice at close quarters as the youngster made three appearances in friendlies before switching allegiances to England.
