People taking things he says was too literally. The phrase "swinging punches" is just an expression, like "I'll kill ya", you don't actually mean it, it's an expression of anger. For yrs we sang about Vidic "he'll fcking murder ya", should we say sorry of course not. Could Keano be more refined, hell yeah, but then he wouldn't be the man he is, he'd be another robot spouting cliches like Owen. He is what he is. You don't like him, fine, I don't sometimes either, but don't take everything he says so literal.
