He'd start a fight in an empty room. Total nutter and I don't like the bloke and haven't done since the Haaland. That surely bordered on premeditated ABH

I'm not a fan,i do find his constant negativity quite amusing.
Seems that he likes to intimidate people,Shearer didn't seem too phased when playing against him tho.

I like him a lot. Not afraid to say what he thinks. Was also a tremendous footballer in his prime and probably more valuable to Man Utd than other higher profile players they had at the club at that time. The performance he put in for United in Turin against Juventus in the semi-final of the Champions League was outstanding.

Would have happily seen him in a blue Chelsea shirt. United have never truly replaced him.

Speaking as a Paddy & a Villa fan I have to confess to being a fan. He is head strong and speaks his mind. He has a point about the Irish set up...All the suits getting 1st class treatment while the players don't. Jose showed a lack of respect to his opposition. What was wrong till waiting till the end of the game.
Villa have been a better outfit since he came on board.

If Jose hadn't walked over to shake hands I'd agree.
Poor looser,probably bitter because he'll never accomplish anything major as a manager.
I do like that he speaks his mind,but just seems like he's trying to be controversial most of the time.

...Really not sure what his & Lamberts problem was with Mourinho leaving before the final whistle. 3-0 game over,pathetic not to shake his hand.

Doesn't look like Keane is a Mourinho fan!

Lambert was right though. Extremely bad manners by Mourinho - should be some sort of sanction for that sort of behaviour imo. But that's the nature of the beast!

As for Keane. He was a thug as a player and doesn't seem to be any different now.

It's the start of the Christmas Sporting Book season, so expect a couple more of these - and the 'interviews' that are part of the marketing.

Suppose it depends how pedantic you are.

Just watched the interview on Sky Catchup.
He's a strange man,seems like he'd fall out with him self.

This made me laugh tho

Can't see him ever making it as a top manager tbh.

Whilst I agree he's in cuckoo land and i realise that Mourinho goes early quite often. When the games nil nil he's still there. So I can understand it appearig. Disrespectful saying game over you don't matter anymore.

Fair point.but at 0-0 he's obviously going to stay till the whistle.
As for Keane saying if it was sunday league he'd get knocked out:eek:
What planet is he on?

cu

Thats kinda my entire point. The tradition is win lose or draw, managers shake hands at the end. Mourinho goes againt that. Personally I don't have an issue with it. But I can see why others would do.

Keane doesn't mention the bust-up with Poyet in the tunnel, that's because he lost and he's nothing short of a coward at times and a bully and only brags about situations he's won or is proud of irrelevant if it was out of order or not, the blokes a prize one, grade A knob!

You want sanctions to stop managers leaving before the final whistle,you could try putting this to the FA but I reckon they've got bigger fish to fry tbh mate.
Seems very strange to me that something so minor would bother you.

It doesn't 'bother' me, though it seems obviously disrespectful.

And not so much 'sanctions to stop them leaving early', but sanctions so that there is a cost if they act disrespectfully and do so.

Depends what you class as disrespectful. Walking over to shake someone's hand isn't disrespectful IMO :confused:
Seriously where do you draw the line?
This is football were talking about,really no need to scrutinize every thing so much.
