Roy Keane's Priceless Reaction After Erling Haaland Given Stick to Football Invite

Roy Keane had a priceless reaction after Jamie Carragher told him he had invited Erling Haaland to appear on Stick to Football.

Carragher, Keane, Gary Neville and Jill Scott are regulars on the podcast, which is hosted on YouTube.

While the podcast occasionally invites non-football guests on to the show, such as Ronnie O'Sullivan, Rory McIlroy and Luke Littler, it is largely former or current players, or managers, that appear on the podcast.

One former player that has never appeared on the podcast is former Manchester City midfielder Alf-Inge Haaland - who many will recognise as having a significant connection to Keane.

During a Manchester derby in April 2001, Keane produced a horror knee-high tackle on Haaland.

The Irishman was given a three-match ban and fined £5,000 at the time, but was fined a further £150,000 and given an additional five-match ban by the FA after writing in his 2002 autobiography that the tackle was pre-meditated.

Keane's resentment towards Haaland began when the Norwegian accused him of diving and faking what turned out to be an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in 1999.

Many years on, Alf-Inge's son, Erling, has established himself as one of world football's best players.

Keane's feud with Haaland senior has continued over the years, with Alf-Inge said to have been 'really p***ed off' when the former Manchester United captain described his son as a 'spoilt brat' after a 0-0 draw against Arsenal last year.

It is fair to say, therefore, that a podcast involving the pair would be must-watch - though it is understandably a subject that not many people are willing to approach Keane about.

Except Jamie Carragher, who asked Erling Haaland last week on CBS Sports about whether he would be willing to appear on Stick to Football.

The Manchester City star replied: "Jamie Carragher now... and Roy Keane? I think I'll need to bring my father."

During the latest Stick to Football episode, Carragher put the prospect of Alf-Inge and Erling appearing to Keane himself - and his reaction was brilliant.

"Which Haaland?" he asked.

"Yeah, bring him in. Bring them all in. All his family - no problem. We'll be ready."

Neville burst into laughter at the 'we'll be ready' remark, with Ian Wright quipping: "Tell him to bring his dinner. Bring your friends. Bring your dinner!"
