Rule of thumb: ask Roy Keane a stupid question, you'll get an answer made out of pure gold.

Keane and journalists are a match made in comedy heaven, and a perfect storm was whipped up as the Republic of Ireland assistant manager addressed the media at the team's base in Abbotstown. It started with an innocent enough question. "Will Robbie [Keane] be available [for the Germany game]?" Naturally, Roy's eyebrow raises. "Why wouldn't he be?" With Ireland playing Germany on Thursday, what else could he be doing? "His wife just had a baby..." the reply whispers. Initiate: death stare. "Well, HE didn't have the baby. Unless he's breast-feeding, he should be alright." Not even a flicker of a smile. Hero. https://twitter.com/RTEsoccer/status/651388282400468993
