Roy Keane backtracks on anti-Liverpool comments after being put on the spot on ITV

Posted by

Roy Keane is an awful pundit who makes out that every team that loses is awful and most teams who win are just as bad.

Roy Keane’s November Liverpool comments prove hilariously stupid…

Earlier in the season, he slammed Liverpool on ITV’s Champions League Roundup show, suggesting he’d draw his curtains if we were playing in his garden and that under Jurgen Klopp, we were going nowhere.

On Tuesday, Liverpool completed a 5-1 aggregate victory over Manchester City in the Champions League quarters, and Mark Pougatch put Keane on the spot about his earlier claims, thankfully.

The former Manchester United skipper tried to backtrack by suggesting it was only really our defence he was criticising, which is odd, considering his negative comments came after we beat Maribor 3-0 and Spartak 7-0, conceding no goals in either.

He did go on to praise the influence of Virgil van Dijk and Andrew Robertson, which to be fair, is spot on.

Both have been sensational during the second half of this season and will two of the first names on the team-sheet come the semi-finals.
