Roy Keane was the guest pundit on Sky Sports’ Football Show on Friday morning and the Manchester United legend didn’t disappoint.
Not one for holding back his opinions, Keane covered a number of topics and did so with a range of no-nonsense topics.
He called out the big clubs for putting pressure on players to take pay cuts to rattling Sky Sports host Dave Jones after he asked about his beard, to addressing a minor ‘bust-up’ with Wayne Rooney during their time at United.
Keane dropped a dig at the doors of Sir Alex Ferguson and David Gill over contract negotiations too.
Sky Sports know when they Keane get on he’ll say some things controversial, but you can tell as he reflects on the episode with Rooney that Gary Neville remembers the encounter rather well.
Enjoy some snippets of Keane’s chat with Neville and Jame Carragher below:
