‘Roy Keane’s criticism of Erling Haaland has now grow to be completely embarrassing’
Roy Keane is a complicated man. Which means if he’s suffering from amnesia as well, it just makes him even more difficult to fathom.
But this is what the former Manchester United great turned pundit appears to have, following his latest personal assault on Erling Haaland. Keane has returned fire in his war-of-words with Haaland, and accused the Manchester City striker of acting like a ‘spoilt brat’ following his angry reaction to be substituted in the weekend win over Wolves.

The bloke scored 52 goals last season to help City win the Treble, and has plundered another 37 this time round in all competitions, despite missing seven weeks with a fractured foot. In other words, Haaland can behave how he likes.
Death, taxes, Haaland scoring goals and Keane being incapable of accepting the striker’s greatness, have now become the four certainties in life. But the last one has to stop, because it’s embarrassing.
