“Get a life!” An hero of Liverpool FC slams Roy Keane over Virgil van Dijk’s remarks following the Manchester United match
Share
After Sunday’s 0-0 Premier League tie with Liverpool, the former Man United midfielder called Virgil van Dijk “arrogant.”
Following Roy Keane’s altercation with Virgil van Dijk at Manchester United, former Liverpool defender Phil Thompson has encouraged Keane to “get a life.”
After a hard-fought 0-0 draw on Sunday, Keane took issue with Van Dijk, the Liverpool defender, saying that United were “buzzing” to leave Anfield with a point. The Dutch defender maintained that Liverpool was clearly the better team on the day and that just one team was attempting to win the match.
After the game, Keane called Van Dijk’s remarks “arrogant” on Sky Sports and brought up the difficult times Liverpool had previously faced. The analyst also made a subtle jab at Jurgen Klopp’s team by pointing out that they had only won one Premier League championship in the previous thirty years.
Van Dijk responded to the criticism in a composed manner, but legendary Liverpool player Thompson was not impressed. Reacting negatively to Keane’s remarks, he told the former United player to ‘get a life’.
Thompson told talkSPORT, “I just think he was giving his opinion. I don’t think he was arrogant.” “As Gary [Neville] expresses his viewpoint, so does Roy. It was by no means haughty. It was, in my opinion, frustration.
“It seems like you’ve come off that game feeling incredibly frustrated, even though you know you dominated and Manchester United only had that one chance with [Rasmus] Hojlund. There was no conceit in it.
And Roy Keane talking about people’s arrogance—come on, please, do me a favour. I also adore Roy.However, when I played that back to him, he continued to repeat the word. Please, Roy, have a life!

Liverpool ready to recall centre-back in January following ZERO loan games
In the January transfer window, Liverpool is anticipated to complete the first of possibly numerous recalls, bringing an early stop to Rhys Williams’ Aberdeen loan.
Despite the fact that Liverpool committed to loaning out 17 players prior to the summer deadline, several of those players have not had a successful season thus far.
James Balagizi, James Norris, and Fabio Carvalho are expected to be the subjects of choices as the January transfer window draws near and teams may resume doing business.
After a difficult half-season contract with Celtic, Nat Phillips is probably going to return, and Luke Hewitson’s contract at Stalybridge Celtic is also about to end.
The 22-year-old centre back Williams has found this season to be extremely disappointing because he hasn’t played for Aberdeen in the first team.
His transition suffered an early setback due to a serious back injury that expanded to his calves, despite his hopes of being a first-choice starter.
Williams has not been included in the Scottish Premiership matchday squad since his recovery, and he has not been used as a substitute in any of the team’s five Europa League group matches.
His one game was in August when the Aberdeen U21s lost to Peterhead in the Scottish Challenge Cup. He is currently scheduled to return to Liverpool.
The Mail claims that the Englishman is “considering recalling” by the club, but there is extremely little chance that this will happen.
After Joel Matip suffered a season-ending injury, it is speculated that Williams might return to “ease the burden” on Jurgen Klopp’s defensive lines.
However, there is little likelihood that he will make the first team, especially if Phillips returns to Merseyside following a challenging time with Celtic.
It is more likely that Williams, who was a key player in the injury-plagued 2020–21 season but has since fallen in the standings, will look for a fresh loan.
A similar decision might be made for Norris, who is having difficulty getting minutes at Tranmere, and Carvalho, whose stint at RB Leipzig appears to be coming to an end due to his inability to fit into Marco Rose’s plans, may have his loan extended.
Due to a hamstring injury, Balagizi is currently out of commission for three League One games; as a result, his time at Wigan could come to an early conclusion.
