John McGinn

Being fair to Roy Keane...? I've seen it all now! 

[Simon Page]

If you were a punter in the pub or on a forum you'd say he's like a pub player when he has a bad game and everyone would know what you meant. If you're meant to be an expert worth listening to, you'd say something at least on nodding terms with reality and hopefully insightful. When McGinn, or anyone, has a bad game, they have a bad game at the highest level against the 0.0001% who can even get close to that level.

Roy Keane is and always has been a twat. He always will be a twat. He was a genuinely brilliant footballer who, like McGinn, was pretty much unmatched in his role but, unlike McGinn, entirely sullied any legendary status he might justify by being a dirty, arrogant, thick, solipsitic cnut.

He remains the lobotomised, one-eyed man's Des Bremner. That good but, somehow, not fit to breathe the same air as either Hibbee giant.

Roy Keane is and always has been a twat.

Which of course is really the only reason he's employed as a pundit. The jeopardy of never quite knowing whether he might get up and punch Micah Richards in the face.

He wouldn’t, because he relies purely on most people not having the nerve to stand up to him.

It's mainly just a shit bit of insight. 'When a player is bad then he's bad' - No way!

Would rather have players like John McGinn then some jumped up twats that Manchester United keep buying

Yep, exactly. It was just him being desperate to be contrary form the sake of it and he ended up making a point which is both stupid in that it's obvious and in the fact that it's not a criticism that even feel particularly appropriate for SJM. If he'd said it about Rogers for example I reckon a fair few people would think it was fair, same about most wingers in the league.

Yeah, he's quite literally chosen a player who actually very rarely has a "bad" day. Like you say though, he's a bit of a contrarian.

He probably wouldn’t though, even though he has the right!

Agreed
