Manchester United legend Roy Keane has criticised players’ partners for wearing personalised shirts during the World Cup. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
Labelling the trend ridiculous, Keane revealed that it is such a childish thing for adults to do while their partners are playing football matches.

Roy added that he wouldn’t mind if he saw only children doing it as a gesture for their fathers.
His words, “Oh, the jersey? The World Cup, when all the players’ wives and families are going to the match, all the wives are in the jerseys with the players’ names on the back, wow. Children is fine, but the wives and partners wearing their jerseys, with their name on the back, wow.
You not with me on that? A year later they are separated, most of them. And they’re all getting pictures, and they’re pointing at a Jimmy or Johnny on the back, wow. We know who you are married to. Children is fine, the partners is ridiculous. All sitting in the same family section, I’ve got my jersey, have you got yours? I’m not having it.
They only do it at the World Cup, you don’t see it at Old Trafford or Anfield every week. So what’s with the World Cup? Imagine a woman going, ‘I’m going to put a football jersey on today with my husband’s name on the back.”
WOW.
