Burnley defender Keane mixed emotions over Man Utd return

Burnley defender Michael Keane had mixed emotions over defeat at Manchester United last week.

Keane returned to his old club in midweek but admitted the occasion was spoiled a little by the result.

"It was special, obviously I have a lot of friends there, the players and all the staff as well," he told the Lancashire Evening Telegraph.

"It was a great night and I think it didn't really affect my game a lot. I played as I would anywhere else.

"But the result and what happened made it a bit sour.

"Sometimes it's easier to accept it if you don't play well, but when you play really well and come away with nothing it's really disappointing."
