This makes me think of how Ibrahimovic has been accused of bullying certain players in Sweden's national team. Ibra himself has said it's bullshit and that he just demands more from players simply because he wants to win. Just like Keane. So there's a good reason why Keane and our Ibra have won so much. And why Walters and the supposedly bullied Swedish players haven't.

[@philwill0123]

Also shows why Keane hasn't managed since. Fact is as a manager, you have to know when to to react properly to situations. Roy has come across as a one dimensional manager. When it works, it works short term, but the fall out is toxic.

I did work for a person in Surrey UK 3 years ago, it turned out to be an ex pro footballer who was at Ipswich the same time Roy Keane was manager there this guy was a seasoned pro and actually finished his career at Ipswich. His first statement about Roy Keane was he said he was the only person ever in football he was in fear of. He told this story of a reserve team player that Roy had a go at after training the player got upset at the tongue lashing he was getting and Jon Walters stood up and said "gaffer you are out of order" Keane turned on him and said "let's take this outside". 5 minutes later the dressing room door burst open and Keane growled "who else wants a fucking go" Walters got a lesson and it wasn't in words the player told me. He said when both went out the team thought Walters would do Keane but they were stunned when the opposite happened.

You are right but it does help getting a leg up when your Dad is the one and only Celtic and Liverpool legend; Kenny Dalglish. Gabby Yorath is excellent and her dad was famous Leeds footballer Terry Yorath. Kirsty Gallagher is a good presenter and her dad was famous golfer Bernard Gallagher. Bobby Charlton even got his daughter to read the BBC weather..lol Nepotism is rife. How many other excellent Female Presenters are there out there who never get those opportunities?

[@Keeleysound]

@@Isleofskye Good point but at the same time, Kelly has sought to downplay the association (by adopting her married surname and losing her maiden name altogether). Also, as much as being Kenny's daughter would have helped early on, she'll have had a lifetime of people attributing her success to nepotism, and overlooking her genuine skills. So I think there's clearly two sides to it, and both viewpoints are valid

@Jamie McCarthy well I think boxing for years when you're a teenager will have some affect when you're 25. I've seen it plenty. Surely you've trained and learned about up close face to face uppercut? This isn't about a few minutes rolling around. It's about one punch. The other team would have known about Keane boxing and that he had will to do it. Look at Haaland's leg. You mentioned reality, he boxed when he was a teenager. That's the reality. And the best few fighters I seen had boxed. No rolling around nonsense. Just fast and done. Anyway, you have your view, I have mine.

[@y1521t21b5]

A story that changes as often as Walters' must be thinner on facts. That said, Walters has done very commendable work to help sufferers of mental health issues.

[@neilshanahan8217]

Big fan of Keane as a player but Walters was dead right. Roy brought family into it and I believe Walters about the confrontation. A big lad like that would've smacked Keane all over the place.

Haha Keane might be lying, and I wouldn't know, but at least his story is coherent and makes sense lol He kept saying he was in Keane's head, but the way he delivered that lacked confidence, wouldn't be sold on this story.

[@summan41man]

This Walters guy is an excuse merchant, absolutely full of it. It's plain to see that he shit his pants from Keane, and has to try and promote his fantasy version of the story. Guy's a contradiction, who claims he doesn't hold grudges. Why has he got to bring some family marine guy in to the equation. That's typical shitbag deflection techniques the beef is between him and Keane but he has to try and drag everyone else in to it. We all know if someone made comments about your family, to your face, you'd deal with it. You wouldn't then ask them to hit you. Who does he think he's kidding with stories like that. Keane might not be the hardest guy in the world, he dedicated his life to football, not boxing or mma, so clearly won't be a fighter. But his character is much harder than Walters' , if you put them both in a pit and let them scrap, I would bet a months wage that Keane walks out of that pit the winner

Keane is a twat. However, there is no reality where keane wasnt a better and more reliable player for ireland than walters. If you are on about saipan just say it. On the pitch pre saipan Keane was our best players by miles. Not even debatable to anybody with a semblance of footballing sense. Keane being a dick, which he is, is absolutey besides the point. To say walters delivered more on the.pitch for ireland is simply ridiculous and patently untrue. That isnt to take anything from walters. Great player for Ireland. But dont overstate a point based on personality. Keane was an infinitely better player. Keane being a shit guy or walters being a nicer man doesn't come into footballing reality.
