Keane - Manchester United 'will only get stronger'
Roy Keane has warned Manchester United's title rivals that his former club will "only get stronger".
Keane said United were "red hot favourites" for the Premier League and believes only an injury to Wayne Rooney could pose a serious problem.
Keane, 40, who was sacked as Ipswich manager in January after 20 months in charge, told BBC Radio 5 live's Sportsweek: "United to me are just going to get stronger and they are the team to beat as usual.
"At reserve and academy level, they have got such good young players coming through.
"Eventually you hope they get into the first team, just as Danny Welbeck and Tom Cleverley have.
"And they settle straight into the team because they've got good habits, good attitudes and a good spirit.
"The only major question mark would be if Wayne Rooney picks up an injury, because he's a big, big player for them.
"He is scoring goals for fun. Since he signed his contract, he has settled down and his best years are still ahead of him."
