I've said this several times - best pundit on TV. Why he's not on TV more God only knows. He doesn't hold back and says what people are scared of saying.

I like how honestly he speaks but he comes across as passive-aggressive which isn't a positive trait for a studio pundit.

He's an angry, violent thug.

Pretty funny when he's talking about football, but imagine actually physically being in his presence. Toxic.

Not even close. He’s occasionally funny, but hugely obnoxious.

Talks a good game
Great player
Sh-it manager who would fail dismally at trying to put into practice what he likes to preach.

Loves the fact everyone has to tread on eggshells when they are around him cos he’s still basically a thug

If you know anything about football as you do, you know he's spot on - but he'll never be popular. People who know naff all about football won't like him. Ever notice the extra seats in the studio? Have Sky ever had that many seats?

Great player, one of the greatest midfielders in all fairness.

He's got every right to sit there and tear this current Utd to shreds, more than anyone on here and we do it regularly, he's an actual club legend, one of their greatest captains etc.
He's spot on with what he says, especially about the players having the potential to stab Ole in the back like they did to Jose.

I see people on here suggesting a big clear out, but it's Utd who need the bigger one

Keane knows what it takes to make a successful team who will win titles and he knows why this United team and certain players are a million miles off some of the players he played with....and we all know that United are massively missing a player like Roy Keane.
But whilst he is great at saying what is wrong with United i’m not sure he has ever named any players that would start to fix the issue. Of course he is right that most of the defence need replacing....but who with ?
Football has also changed since he played and especially the way teams set up their defences.
Would United fans even stand for a much more solid new defence when the midfield is as weak as it is ?
Other than Rashford and De Gea i’m not sure Keane would say any other current player is good enough for United.

Funny ain’t it ?!!!!

90% of Burnley fans want him nowhere near the club, until he is actually nowhere near the club.... then we can use it to have a go at him.
