Robbie Keane on Football’s Biggest Problem: Where Are the Elite Strikers?

  • Summary

  • Robbie Keane joins Rio Ferdinand and Joel Beya to tackle a burning question in today’s football: why is there a shortage of elite strikers in the modern game?


    A member of the Premier League’s 100 club, Keane shares his candid thoughts on what’s changed, compares the current crop of forwards to players from his era such as Zola, van Nistelrooy, Berbatov, Torres, Owen, Fowler, Henry and Bergkamp and discusses why the art of striking might be a dying craft.


    Robbie also dives into incredible stories from his career, including the day he realised Leeds United was in financial turmoil, Clarence Seedorf’s quirky habits as a roommate, and the simple yet genius tip every footballer needs to know.


    Plus, you’ll hear the inside scoop on his resignation from managing Maccabi Tel-Aviv in Israel, why he rates his partnership with Berbatov as his best, and the hilarious creation of a Leeds Boy Band from the 2000 squad.
