Keane leaves Wright in stitches after giving Pep Guardiola cheeky bit of advice

  /  Sherlock19

ROY KEANE was caught smirking - before giving Pep Guardiola some shock advice.

Manchester United legend Keane and ex-Arsenal hero Ian Wright were puzzled by the Manchester City chief's blunt interview for Friday's FA Cup clash against the Gunners.

Ian Wright couldn't contain himself over Roy Keane's message for Etihad chief Pep Guardiola at the FA Cup tie with Arsenal

Guardiola didn't seem happy to be asked about meeting Arteta afterwards

And former hardman Keane left Wrighty roaring with laughter after giving poker-faced Pep one of the most ironic tips ever.

ITV's Gabriel Clarke had asked Guardiola if he'd be sharing a drink with Arsenal counterpart Mikel Arteta after the fourth-round tie - win or lose.

But the Spaniard shrugged, mumbled a short reply and appeared desperate to dash away - which he promptly did.

Keane was spotted giving something like a scornful smirk as the spotlight returned to the studio.

And ex-England striker Wright said: "It looked like hard work for him (Guardiola).

"It's funny, I never hear anything out of his interviews.

"He looks like someone who doesn't want to be doing them.

"It's really strange because I think Gabe was on good form there. He wasn't being nasty, Gabe."

That's when Keane, known for his stern face and straight-talking, stepped in with his one-line take-down of Pep.

The former Sunderland manager said: "I think Pep should smile a bit more - and that's coming from me."

The crack had Wrighty and host Mark Pougatch in stitches - but it's not clear if Pep saw the funny side.
