KEANO VOWS NOT TO CHANGE AND DENIES ANY RIFT WITH OT TEAM-MATES

"Lots of stuff was said when I left United but I didn't have a problem with the players.

"There was speculation about what I was supposed to have said to the club's television station.

"I watched a video recording of the programme with the players and they were all in agreement with what I said.

"If you are going to analyse a 4-1 defeat, then analyse it. I have no problems with any of the lads at United.

"If you ask any player I have played with from my schooldays through to Nottingham Forest and United, they will all say something decent about me."

More:

"At Celtic, I'll settle in for the first few weeks and see how the lads operate.

"You know, find out the players who like a laugh and a joke, the quiet ones.

"After that, I'll speak my mind. Players appreciate that in the long run.

"It is better to say things face to face than behind a person's back.

"Players might not like me for it, but they will respect me."
