‘Looks like they're chatting in Starbucks' Roy Keane urges England stars to scream at each other after error-ridden loss
ROY KEANE has urged England's struggling side to wake up and smell the coffee.
The Three Lions put in a dismal showing as they slumped to a 3-1 friendly loss to Senegal on Tuesday night.

Man Utd legend Keane appeared alongside Mark Pougatch and Ian Wright to review the performance on ITV.
And he didn't hold back, accusing England 's stars of lacking fire and speaking to each other "like they're in Starbucks".
Keane raged: "Both of the first two goals [England] conceded tonight, I don't see them getting hold of each other.
"You don't throw each other under the bus but you start shouting at each other, telling them to do their job.
"For the second goal, they are having a chat like they are in Starbucks. They're all saying, 'Maybe I should have gone for that.'
"Do your job! That is what good teammates do. Do your job or we are in trouble."
England's defeat was their first ever against an African nation.
And just a year out from a World Cup, Keane believes there is something fundamentally wrong behind the scenes.

He continued: "On one hand, you don't want to overreact.
"But the signs aren't great. It's been a bad couple of days for England.

"They won [against Andorra] but you felt the rhythm wasn't there.
"I think the manager will be concerned. I look at this England group, I think there's something amiss.
"To me they don't look like a happy group.
"Are they really all in it together? Is there proper spirit amongst the group? I'm not so sure."
Keane also took aim at Kyle Walker for being "lazy" after England threw away a one-goal lead at the City Ground.
The AC Milan defender failed to track his marker as Ismaila Sarr smashed in the equaliser.
Kane raged: "If this is a young right-back starting out in the game you're thinking inexperience.
"I think he has been lazy. He is a vastly experienced defender and he doesn't bother getting back in.
"You tell defenders get back in.
"He's just on his heels and he almost can't be bothered getting back.
"I know he's had a difficult few months but for a vastly experienced player you can't be making mistakes like that."
Thomas Tuchel now has the summer to ponder his next England squad ahead of a home World Cup qualifier with Andorra.
