Speaking on the We are Liverpool podcast, Robbie Fowler teased his ex-Leeds teammate Keane with "we've all read the interviews, when you signed for Liverpool you were a supporter growing up, when you signed for Celtic you were a supporter growing up, when you signed for LA you were an LA fan."
The Republic of Ireland legend laughed it off, and clarified his relationship with Celtic and Liverpool as a young boy.
"I can never understand this! In Ireland, you are brought up, as in like, you are given Celtic. That is just the way it is."You are brought up Celtic, you are actually given Celtic, and then you pick your team in England. It was great, it's a fantastic club, playing in front of them fans is hard to describe."And then you always have an English team, that is completely normal in Ireland. You ask anyone, you'd have loads of Liverpool fans now going to watch Celtic games, so that thing of being a fan grew legs.
"Liverpool and Celtic fans are very, very similar, in terms of the atmosphere and noise in the games. It was a really great experience that I really enjoyed.

In fairness to Keane, most Irish people know exactly where he's coming from, but it's still funnier to assume that he simply changed his allegiance every year.
