Roy Keane has reserved praise for Sunderland striker Michael Chopra after he scored the winning goal in the 1-0 victory over Aston Villa. Chopra hasn't scored for seven months but he leapt off the subs bench to score.
"Michael would have been disappointed to be left out last week but he has got his head down and he got his opportunity."
"Before every game you ask which player is likely to get you a goal and Michael is up there with three or four players.
"If we create chances, Michael will score but we don't create that many. In de
fence of him, I have played him out of position on quite a few occasions. Maybe criticism of him is a bit unfair but myself and the staff are delighted with him."
