Keane joins Sky Sports
- Thread starter stubie
- Start date
I enjoy listening to Roy talking about football. Would give a nod of approval if I had Sky but I don't and am not going to get it for the sake of a pundit.
Not exactly breaking news level stuff.
Might catch some on a stream sometime.

Great. We might get some honest opinion even if it's mad.
Mourhinos tactics come from a successful managers point of view. Totally different to the other pundits.
Jose hasn't been in any way insightful or interesting . All he has offered are childish digs at players he doesn't like and his usual bewilderment at how any manager could show faith in players under 30
His version of the truth perhaps.
Being good at football doesn't mean you're able to convey or even understand why you or others are good at football. His managerial record attests to that. It's just a natural thing for many of them coupled with great coaching and management by their own managers.
Mourinho knows more than them. But TV punditry is not the medium to air that level of detail.
Mourinho is a grandmaster playing tic-tac-toe. In that game, even Jamie Redknapp can match him.
And his truth is no less valid than any other expert who's lived the game. Dare I say, it's a lot more interesting too.
no clubs wanting him as a manager then
In the half time analysis yes that's possible but Sky's pre and post match analysis is quite lengthy. No doubt if you were to watch all of it you'd see that Mourinho knows and informs us of so much more than the other pundits.
We saw Jose during the world cup as a full time pundit and there's no way Rio, Redknapp or Neville are capable of such insight.
Listening to him as a pundit it's pretty clear why he failed as a manager.
Lacks basic emphathy for players on a human level.

He shows why he was such a great manager but also often demonstrates exactly why he isn't anymore.
Mourinho, Souness and Keane all in the studio for today’s game. Could be brutal.Nice, put him together with Mourinho and Souness, I would love for Keano to give them the death stare.
Keane has made a few comments regards disliking Mourinho in the past few years.
Keane made a great comment about people saying they were wrong mentally after a defeat but Mourinho wasn't asked about that.
Think Keane realised as he was saying it, Mourinho was next to him so I think toned it down. I would have expected him to say mentality comes from the manager as well

Good thing pogba is not playing
I love Roy Keane. He just makes me laugh I don’t know what it is. Feck being his mate though because one of us would probably end up battering the other.

This is hilarious, look at Carragher’s face, he did not see that one coming, and boy, it hurt.
He really doesn't care does he? Great stuff.
Hahaha gotta love him sometimes
Everyone knew tht was going to happen. saw it a mile away. still funny.
Everyone but Carragher it seems
Keane is great.
Fantastic. Still hates Liverpool. I like how he agrees and then just adds and Liverpool are still trying to bridge that gap.
Class, "almost won a title...but you still havent won a title". The man is a United legend true and true.
Even when we are crap we can still have a laugh
He’s great.

I know there's two sides to every story but Walters version of events doesn't exactly sound out of character.

A version where keane sounds like a scared guy backing down?
When did he ever back down?
I like him as a pundit, needs to stay far from management though.
Tells it how it is the type of pundit that’s much needed, no agenda or anything.

He may talk the talk but he ain't stupid, he was a man approaching his 40s up against an athlete in his peak, he wouldn't have stood a chance in a physical fight at that point.
Due to his reputation he mentally wins a lot of battles before it gets to that point, however by the sounds of it Walters was prepared to stand up to him hence him threatening to bring the police into it.
When did that happen?Duncan Ferguson.
It's like all those facebook clips and comments, you'll get 100s of rival fans going
"Shearer made him look weak that time he got sent off"
"he never tried it on with Ince/Ferguson/Dicks etc etc"
He didn't back down on the pitch. One of the many reasons he got so many injuries and into such giggles.
I dare say Keane in his late 30s would still batter a lot of "peak" "athletes".
29 years agoDuncan Ferguson.
You're not one of those fans who think Keane is a prime Mike Tyson are you? Keane is and was a bully who relied on intimidation. No surprise he'd back down from a fight against a bigger player as a football manager as it'd be completely ridiculous
And yes I've heard a Everton season ticket holders say Big Dunc bullied Keane physically and Keane backed down. Given Dunc bullied everyone physically including doing prison time and picking up Ince and tossing him to the floor like a ragdoll it wouldn't be at all surprising
Also if Gary Neville can hold you back you probably weren't as up for a fight as some may believe
