There have been more Roy Keane meetings with the media than usual during Euro 2016 but the Republic of Ireland assistant boss is never boring!
Today it was his interaction with a Belgian hack that produced his killer line and brought the house down in Versailles.
The visiting journalist seemed to suggest that despite Belgium's array of world stars and following Monday's results in Group E, the Boys in Green might be favourites to win the game on SaturdayThe atmosphere was a little more serious when Keane was reminded of the comments he made following Eden Hazard's poor Champions League performance against Paris Saint Germain last February.
"I can’t understand these players, he signed an extension of five years only last year, when we saw how brilliant he was… and then he’s coming out with all that nonsense on the eve of a big game," blasted Keane.
"If I was a team-mate of his I would kick him up and down the training pitch. Some of the senior players have got to get hold of him. He’s a talented boy, but his attitude is like a spoilt child. It was absolutely ridiculous."
He explained today that it was specifically the player's attitude he was having a pop atThe former Irish skipper was delighted with the team's performance against Sweden last Monday but will not be allowing the players to rest on their laurels
