John O'Shea has refuted claims that he was picked on by Roy Keane. Contrary to what Alex Ferguson says in his autobiography, O'Shea said 'Roy was always wanting the best and he'd always look out for me.'

Ferguson wrote in his book that '[Darren] Fletcher and O’Shea are the two he picked on, and they were booed as a result by our fans.'
'In one deep sense, him leaving was the best thing that could have happened, because a lot of the players were intimidated by him in the dressing room, and those players emerged well from his departure. John O’Shea and Darren Fletcher were certainly beneficiaries.'
However, O'Shea is adamant that this was not the case. You can listen to him speaking to Darren Cleary of FM104 here.
