Villa boss Lambert backs Keane "disgrace" blast for Mourinho

Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert backs his No2 Roy Keane over criticism of Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho. Keane pulled no punches about Mourinho's alleged lack of respect by trying to shake hands with Lambert and himself before the end of Chelsea's recent 3-0 win at Stamford Bridge. And Lambert agrees completely with his colleague.

"Yeah I do [think it was disrespectful], yeah," he said.

"My thoughts are exactly the same as Roy's on them. The game has not even finished. I don't think it was right.

"No, I didn't speak to (Mourinho) about it.

"I just thought it was wrong. It's not the way I was brought up. I just think it was wrong."
