yossarian 0 Posted February 23, 2010 Keane was never ever gonna cut it as a manager. Churning out magnificent performance after magnicifent performance at the very top level does not leave one with much time to consider the more subtle tactical elements of the game.Maintaining almost psychotic levels of intensity throughout game after game makes you a winner - as a player. Such an admirable yet freakish mental approach to winning a game of football made keane a truly wonderful player - and it , in my humble opinion, is excactly what will continue to prevent him ever making it as a manager. Rumour has it that many of the Ipswich squad are shit scared of him. Not a difficult rumour to believe is it? Having said all that as a Norwich boy with yella and green wee-wee I hope he sticks at it. Our manager has also got a champions league winners medal , he could "look after himself" on the pitch too - just like mad-roy. I just suspect that mad-roy was so massively "fired-up?" as a player he really can''t relate to the 99.9% of todays players who are not. Keane - better player. Lambert - better manager. Ipswich - going down. Norwich - going up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beauseant 0 Posted February 23, 2010 The only thing I''d take issue with is whether Keane was a better player than Lambert. More physical, yes, but in terms of quality? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was hoping to hook the odd lurking binner, but there don''t seem to be so many on here this season. Can''t for the life of me think why that might be.....

Jacko 0 Posted February 23, 2010 Lambert was a fantastic player. He won as many European Cups as Keane. But he was not quite in Keane''s class. No doubt who is the superior manager though..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
