Roy Keane has become more of a salty old grumpy man rather than being a tv pundit. For me it looks like his only job is to stir the pot and call out people.

Jurgen Klopp handling the situation well after Keane called them ‘sloppy’ yesterday



Perfect for Sky then.

He didn't call them sloppy, quite the opposite, he said they were outstanding with a couple of sloppy moments. Seemed like a bang on analysis to me

He definitely said they were sloppy before Klopp came on and made him squirm and backtrack.

I do love Keane as a pundit
I love Micah Richards.
I simultaneously love/hate both of them.

Neither work when asked to provide an insightful analysis of a passage of play, but...

I really enjoy Keane's sour attitude when in a room with more upbeat pundits (Richards being the prime example) - mainly to see their reaction to him going off on a rant.

Edit: Here's Micah Richards watching an unfunny video game sequence:

Keane is like marmite. You either love him or hate him

He's a Spurs fan, that could be why he has a face like a slapped arse

He didn't give a shit who he upset as a player and he's carried it on into his punditry. He calls it how he sees it and I don't have a problem with that. Balances out some of the others who spend their time blowing smoke up arses.

He’s alright but gets a bit annoying.

Reminds me of how Ian Wright used to be waaay back in the 2000s as a pundit on England games. He was always so excited and couldn't contain himself, which was nice to see for a bit, but started to get old quite quickly because you could've had the same level of analysis from any random bloke off the street. Nowadays I quite like Wright, he's grown into it, so maybe Micah will do the same.
