The Cork man was on Sky Sports on Sunday for the big game between Liverpool vs Manchester City and he was very critical of the Champions of England Liverpool.
“I think they’ve been bad champions,” Keane said of Jurgen Klopp’s side. “We’re talking about Liverpool, people keep telling me Liverpool are a great club and a huge club.
🗣 "They are making a lot of excuses, to me they've been bad champions."

“If they’re a huge club then you have to take setbacks, is that not part of the game? If everyone had all their players fit all of the time, it would be fantastic.
“If you want to look at Man City – with the run they’ve been on – you could see they’re missing two of their best players and Liverpool are a strong team.
“I know they’re missing their two centre-backs but they’ve still got their best attacking players on the pitch. They still have their best goalkeeper available, they’ve still got international players in midfield.”
Keane's "bad Champions" comment was off.
Roy walked into Champions of England from Forest (who were relegated) so had existing Champions to help him along.United won long after he left too.
Trent, Robertson, Henderson etc all made themselves Champions from scratch.

The player? exceptional.
Pundit? Sky have decided it's better than he hams up the "I'm an alpha male, everyone else is shit" ( fans like to see themselves in a hard man) rather than the guy who was a dressing room confidant, got Sunderland up and who has a big football brain. https://t.co/PAZrpJRAH4
