Superb. You’ve got to love Micah.
Wonder if Keane knows that Redknapp reckons he could take him in a fight…

"It's always great to be top of the league in November, vital time of the season that," a sarcastic Keane said of Redknapp’s former club Spurs.
"Alright, you're on it today,” Redknapp responded.
