Roy Keane Rips Into 'Spursy' And Their Weak DNA In One Of His Most Brutal Rants Yet

“Spurs… Spursy! How many times do we have to say it?"

Roy Keane did not hold back in his assessment of Spurs following their FA Cup defeat against Middlesbrough, calling them "weak" and "pathetic."

Antonio Conte's side were knocked out of the cup on Tuesday after teenager Josh Coburn bagged in the 107th-minute to seal a deserved 1-0 victory for the Championship side.

It was, however, another disappointing night for the North London club, who have struggled in recent weeks.

Despite recording a win against league leaders Manchester City in February, the Premier League side dropped points against Burnley, Wolves and Southampton last month.

And following their most recent loss against Championship opposition, an unimpressed Keane gave his honest thoughts on their performance.

“Spurs… Spursy! How many times do we have to say it?" he said ahead of the Liverpool's clash against Norwich on ITV.

"Whatever’s in that club’s DNA - the players - there’s a weakness there. It’s really pathetic but I wasn’t surprised. Going up to Middlesbrough in midweek, probably a bit cold. No surprises there.”

You can see Keane's memorable rant alongside Ian Wright below. Is he right?

Ian Wright then brought up the impressive form of Harry Kane, who has scored three goals in his past four games. But Keane wasn't having any of it.

This isn't the first time Keane has criticised Kane in recent months.

Back in November, during ITV's coverage of England's clash against Albania, the former Manchester United captain mentioned the 28-year-old's lack of trophies at club level.

"He's [Kane] got to liven up, he's got to liven up," Keane said.

"He's got to look at himself and say ‘Get over these disappointments’ - listen, he plays for Spurs he should be used to disappointment, it's not like they win stuff.

"Get back to the basics, get hold of the ball, show some sort of leadership skills and no more excuses."

"He plays for Spurs - he should be used to disappointment."
