Ex-Man United coach reveals Roy Keane's worried comments in first meeting after major injury

Mick Clegg was power and conditioning coach at Old Trafford and Carrington from 2000 until 2012, working under Alex Ferguson and alongside greats of the game such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Paul Scholes, Denis Irwin and Wayne Rooney.
