ROY KEANE believes he should have retired after leaving Manchester United.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Instead, the Red Devils legend joined Celtic before injuries forced him to retire six months later.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

Keane revealed how he played through the pain barrier at Celtic Park and needed to take painkillers just to train.<\/p>\n

Injury problems limited the midfielder to just 13 appearances for Celtic before hanging up his boots.<\/p>\n

He told Sky Bet's Stick to Football: \u201cI should have retired when I left Manchester United, the day I left the club. <\/p>\n

"I even lost a bit of the love for the game after that, I left United and went up to Celtic, my hip was at me, painkillers for training, tore my hamstring two or three times, commuting, thinking I\u2019m 34 now. <\/p>\n

"I still had a year left on my contract [at Celtic] and I went to see the hip specialist and they said that the longer I play the worse damage. <\/p>\n

"The beauty is that when I rang Gordon Strachan, I told him that I\u2019m finished, I was losing sleep before I rang him but as soon as I put the phone down I had closure on my career, no hesitation, it wasn\u2019t a relief but something was lifted off me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Keane experienced injury problems throughout his career including tearing his anterior cruciate ligament in 1997.<\/p>\n

A hip problem also kept him out for months in 2002, with the issue ultimately contributing to his retirement.<\/p>\n

Gary Neville, who featured alongside Keane on Stick to Football, also admitted he should have retired before he did.<\/p>\n

The pundit said: \u201cI got injured in 2007 and I missed the whole of the Champions League season in 2008 \u2013 that wasn\u2019t the point where I felt that I was going to retire because I was still 33, it was when I came back after eight months and felt like the game had moved on.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe injury was the ankle, I was out for eight months and had lots of problems with it, but then I also started pulling my calves and I was having those injections that felt like oil.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I came back, every season I thought I was going to retire but they just offered me another year. I retired at Christmas in the 2010-11 season, and I should have definitely retired the year before, I knew that I\u2019d gone.\u201d<\/p>\n
