Manchester United great Roy Keane can't see his old team challenging for the title next season.

Keane won five Premier League titles during his time under Sir Alex Ferguson at Old Trafford.

In an interview with The Independent, Keane insisted that “there is a bit of work to be done yet".

"The league table doesn't lie," he added, before stating that United "are a bit short at the back".

He then concluded: “It will be hard to get past Liverpool or Man City over the next 12 months."
