More from RK:
"In the two games against Real I played poorly. The Zidanes of the world are my benchmark and I know I came up short," Keane said. "People suggested I was finished. I even asked the question of myself. I don’t lose sleep over other people’s criticism but I’m my own biggest critic and I know
I didn’t perform. I’m in the game to win trophies and the Champions League is the ultimate and (because of not being part of the 1999 final) I do not feel I have won that. If I didn’t win the Champions League at United it would cast a shadow over my career and everything I have achieved. I would always regret not winning it."
And when he does finish he expects to be a manager:
"It was amazing (the caching course he's just been on). I really enjoyed seeing the other side of things. I want to have something in place so if I do finish in the next year I’d be ready to go into it (management) — if I want to go down that road.
"I have a lot to give football and the honest answer is that I think I’d be a good manager. I don’t want to be an average manager who doesn’t prepare properly or look after his players."
