Ireland’s captain and record goalscorer has spoken

Robbie Keane isn’t just banging in goals and showing Steven Gerrard around LA because Ireland’s skipper has also proven what a top man he is by taking the time out to help our Special Olympics athletes this week.

Keano was chatting about his ambassadorial duties for the event with Today FM DJ Ian Dempsey this morning and he seemed in cracking form.

Among some lighthearted chat about factor 50 suncream, One Direction and Robbie’s love for Christy Moore was the far more interesting topic of Keano’s all-time favourite Irish XI.

Here it is and of course he included himself in it. After all, he’s only our record goalscorer!

FYI, Keano also gave honourable mentions to Gary Breen , Matt Holland and Lee Carsley. I reckon the LA Galaxy striker will be getting a few texts for leaving some of his mates out.
