Man Utd legend Keane: Di Matteo won't fret losing Chelsea job

Manchester United legend Roy Keane says Roberto di Matteo won't be fretting about losing the Chelsea job.

Keane wrote in the Sun on Sunday: "A year ago Roberto Di Matteo was unemployed - so I wouldn't be fretting if I was him.

"Because if Chelsea do not give him the manager's job on a permanent basis, he will know that he will pick up another club easily enough.

"He was lucky in a way. Most assistants are sacked along with a manager but he was kept on after Andre Villas-Boas was fired.

"Di Matteo has done really well, winning the two competitions that Chelsea could still win, bearing in mind they were too far behind in the Premier League.

"I think he deserves to get the job for a year or two but I see it from the club's point of view."
