Someone asked me about the Bruno/Keane issue this morning and what I thought etc.
Make no mistake, Keane has misquoted Bruno and should apologise.
Some great points in the threads below.
I've grown up watching Keane, read the books, maybe even played the game a bit like him as a result. I have enjoyed him as a pundit, but it is getting a bit predictable these days.
Bruno, as I've said, has dragged us through some dark times, very different times to what Keane was skipper for.
But one thing I said to my mate when asked who was the more rounded skipper, one moment came to mind.
Juventus, Semi-final, Keane getting booked.
Without any hesitation, Keane took the booking. I have my doubts on whether Bruno would take the card knowing he would miss the final (if they progressed). So I guess I can understand where some of the comments from Keane are coming from.
I still love Bruno and would not want him to leave now he is back in his 10 position. But I think as a better skipper, Keane nudges it. But that doesn't give him free reign to be an ass about it to future skippers.

At this point, I find Keane an incredibly boring pundit and man. He's not entertaining. He can't analyze a game, and I really don't know why anyone listens to a word he says.
