Roy Keane's biggest outbursts - ranked

When it comes to punditry royalty, few grace television screens quite like Roy Keane.

Never far away from an iconic line or a withering put-down, the former Manchester United and Republic of Ireland midfielder has become a mainstay on channels like Sky Sports and ITV for his everyman takes and — of course — his stressed out meltdowns whenever the Red Devils implode.

With that in mind, here are the occasions where Keane has let the public know what he really thinks.

Then the Republic of Ireland's assistant manager to Martin O'Neill, Roy didn't see any reason for namesake Robbie to miss a game after his wife gave birth to a baby boy.

Ryan Giggs is hardly everyone's favourite cup of tea but Keane's reaction when Jamie Carragher left the Welshman out of a combined Liverpool 2020 and Man Utd 1999 XI showed him at his most flabbergasted.

After watching Man Utd throw away a 3-0 lead and almost lose an FA Cup semi-final to Championship side Coventry — with some pathetic antics from Antony thrown in for good measure — it was hardly surprising to hear Keane lose his patience with his old side.



Eesh.

It was definitely odd to see an assistant referee land an elbow on a footballer, but Liverpool defender Andy Robertson wasn't fooling Keano, who repeated the word 'baby' until it was greeted by roaring laughs in the Sky box.

Keane wasn't happy with the support Man Utd fans provided during a must-win Champions League clash with Dynamo Kyiv in 2000. They scrapped their way to a 1-0 win but Keane still wentafter the home support, suggesting they were more focused on the bougie snacks on offer.



Man of the people? Yep, that's Keano!

Saying a robot goalscorer has the general skill of a player in League Two is probably a battle
