Roy Keane looks a serious figure as Ed Sheeran gatecrashes Sky Sports set
Keane was on punditry duties for Manchester United's 1-1 draw against Ipswich and saw Ed Sheeran gatecrash the set.
Roy Keane looked less than impressed when Ed Sheeran gatecrashed the Sky Sports set on Sunday, where the crew was speaking to new Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim.
The Reds played out a 1-1 draw against the Tractor Boys in Amorim's first game in charge, and he came to chat with the Sky Sports punditry team afterwards.
But pop star Sheeran ended up gatecrashing the interview, declaring that he loves being back in the Premier League.

Sussex-born-and-raised Sheeran is a die-hard Ipswich fan and serves as the club’s shirt sponsor.
But Keane looked less than impressed, not cracking a smile during Sheeran’s unexpected cameo.
The Corkman spoke about the state of Manchester United and the job ahead of Amorim.
“That was a positive start that they had,” said the former Ireland midfielder. “But also, he has seen the other side of being a Man United manager, the demands.
“Yeah, he’s a coach, obviously that’s his job title. But we saw at the start of the game, I bet he couldn’t have dreamed of a start like this, the first minute of the game, very attacking, positive football, players running, exciting young players, brilliant play, and we get Rashford who we’ve been critical of, not getting enough goals, a dream start.
“But we see the manager, the pressure at Man United (compared) to Sporting; chalk and cheese.”
Keane added that some of the issues that brought down Erik ten Hag hadn’t gone away, just because of the change of manager.
“We saw the shape of the team, but you still have the same players out there and the same problems,” he said.
“You talk about leopards and spots, the issue with United over the last year or two, lack of goals, lack of quality in the second-half.”
