“He’s milked everything for the last six months, a year” – Hunt reckons Keane is taking too much on his plate

Brought to you by William Hill.

Football punditry has changed.

Whether that's for better or worse depends on who you ask but there's no denying the fact that, compared to what's gone before, this weekend was different. And you can take your pick. It could be Daniel Sturridge singing Usher to try and get a rise out of Roy Keane or it could be the gimmicky technology that showed us Mo Salah's assist for Luis Diaz through the eyes of Mo Salah. Talk about using technology for the sake of using technology. Analysing the analysis might seem like a futile activity but the analysis, especially when it involves someone like Roy Keane, is the best part for a lot of viewers. Keane is regularly described as a box-office part of Sky Sports' coverage but Stephen Hunt reckons he's taken so much on his plate over the last six months, between the Overlap, Monday Night Football, advertisements and so on, to the extent that he just couldn't be enjoying it as much as he once was. "He's milked everything for the last six months, a year," says Hunt. "Even getting dressed as a clown. Roy is an angry man, there's no doubt about it, and that's what got him the success like. "Keane deserves this though (to be getting annoyed alongside Sturridge.) "Keane's playing the game the last six months. "That ain't the real Roy Keane and if it is then let him suffer, he's made his own bed. He's on everything." https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/1691798736593149981 Former League of Ireland footballer Alan Cawley, meanwhile, is no fan of the banter dynamic the likes of Micah Richards and Daniel Sturridge seem to be charged with bringing to the table. "The whole Micah Richards dynamic, some people like that, but I don't. "I don't like it at all," says Cawley. I think it's forced. "I find him (Richards) hard to listen to on the punditry, I don't think he offers very much. And he's there for the bit of a stupid laugh with Keane as the comic guy." "And I don't like it at all. "And now Lineker and Shearer have tapped into the same thing and it's all laughing and joking and banter. It's absolute rubbish. Give me Keane and Neville and Carragher having a proper football debate. "Monday Night Football is my favourite show, but these gadgets, it's too much. This craic, in the eyes of the player, such nonsense." "I love Monday Night Football, I love Carragher and Neville, and sometimes last year I wanted the game to be cancelled, and let them talk for four hours going through stuff. But this time I thought it was just our gimmicks are bigger than your gimmicks. "Now they've added Sturridge into it. And the couple of clips I've heard of him on the football side isn't bad. And that's fine. But all this other craic going along with it now..." You can watch the full House of Football below. Related links:
