Roy Keane labelled Leicester 'so weak'(Image: Sky Sports)

Roy Keane has delivered a scathing verdict on Ruud van Nistelrooy's struggling Leicester - claiming that they already 'look like a Championship team'.

Leicester, who appointed Van Nistelrooy on a two-and-a-half-year contract in November, are destined for the drop and will be relegated if they fail to beat champions in-waiting Liverpool at home on Sunday.

Former Manchester United striker Van Nistelrooy has only won two league games since his arrival and Leicester recently broke the English top-flight record for successive defeats without scoring a single goal.



Ex-United team-mate Keane reckons that the belief has been sucked out of the Foxes' squad, saying that there's been 'no reaction' to Van Nistelrooy replacing Steve Cooper.

"It's been tough for Leicester this season," Keane said on Sky Sports.

They look like a Championship side.

"They must be low on confidence, no self-belief, I think there will be players in that dressing room that Leicester will be dreading (facing), particularly if Liverpool start quickly and score an early goal.

"It'll be a tough afternoon for Leicester, they've been up against it all season, obviously they changed their manager, there's been no real reaction to Ruud coming in.

But players have to go and be professional, play with a bit of pride and I think the players will try, obviously, they are doing that but I think their confidence and the belief has gone out of the dressing room."

Should Leicester keep Ruud van Nistelrooy if they get relegated?

Ahead of facing Liverpool, Van Nistelrooy dropped a hint that he's committed to Leicester for next season when they'll almost certainly be playing in the Championship.
