He and Pleaty would be a world-beating duo. Which reminds me:

'They (Gardner and Doherty) should go to bed tonight and think of one another.'

Oh yes they can.

"They compare Steve McManaman to Steve Heighway and he's nothing like him, but I can see why - it's because he's a bit different"

"I know what is around the corner - I just don't know where the corner is. But the onus is on us to perform and we must control the bandwagon"

"In some ways, cramp is worse than having a broken leg"

"You can't do better than go away from home and get a draw"

"He's using his strength and that is his strength, his strength"

Why didn't they get him into commentary? :(

He did, World Cup 98 England V Romania. Owen equalises for England to make it 1-1 and Keegans famous comment. "There's only one team that's going to win this now"....yep Romania 2-1.

A lot of people do seem to believe that maybe Keegan's methods are well outdated now and so far it looks like they may be right.

One newspaper had his teamtalk down as something like this: 'look lads, Arsenal are a great passing team so you just have to pass it even better'... That was it! :shrug:

Although the cheeky sod has managed to blag it a bit as has inherited all of Big Sams medical and fitness staff and methodology...

Yeah hes not all there. The EPL has moved on so much, I think Keegan is stuck in a time warp... his tactics won't work... he doesn't have the contacts anymore... I doubt he is aware of what players are up and coming in Europe.

The whole thing has failure written all over it.

And the worse it gets... the worse Keegan will get. Its been shown time and time again.. he can't handle pressure!

from mary hannigan's planet football:

Quotes of the week

"I am reluctant to tell you all I know as I really do not know anything."
- Kevin Keegan - who else? - on the appointment of Dennis Wise as Newcastle director of football

"The only way we will get in to Europe is by ferry."
- He might be the Messiah, but even Kevin Keegan is losing hope.
