Roy Keane finds a way to put down Ashley Young and offend Chinese people at the same time

Roy Keane is never one to hold back, especially when his former club is the topic of conversation. He demonstrated this yet again when Ashley Young was brought up, since he performed yet another blatant dive during Man United’s 1-0 win over CSKA Moscow in the Champions League.

“I think the guy’s a disgrace,” Keane said. “If he’s a Man United player, I’m a Chinaman.”

That’s Roy Keane, ladies and gentlemen. The only football pundit to casually throw derogatory terms for Chinese people into his Ashley Young insults since your unemployed uncle at that last family gathering.

Reporter asks Ireland defender “Would you like to rear end Roy Keane?”

Ireland manager Martin O’Neill and assistant coach Roy Keane were involved in a minor car accident on Tuesday when their vehicle was rear ended in Dublin. No one involved was seriously hurt, so when Ireland defender Alex Pearce was asked about it by reporters the next day, he said the players gave their coaches a bit of ribbing over the incident. It was at this point that one reporter asked the greatest question ever asked: “Would you like to rear end Roy Keane?”

This seemed to be an attempt to reference the players’ potential frustration with the notoriously gruff ex-Man United midfielder, but it came out very different than intended. Pearce had no idea what to say and the other reporters burst out laughing.

Just a spectacular moment all around, but if Roy Keane had been there, he probably would’ve given that reporter a stiff one right in the mouth.
