Roy Keane was in fine form again on Super Sunday as he brutally shut down Jamie Carragher's claim that Steven Gerrard is Liverpool's greatest ever player - because he never went to another European club.

"But they're not thought of as amazing players by Liverpool supporters because they moved on.
"And that's one of the reasons why Steven Gerrard is such a legend at the club and seen as one of the greatest ever players to play for the club - because he stayed here for his whole career."
But the former Manchester United captain wasn't having that.
"So, loyalty? You think loyalty has to come into it? Right.
"I always say - you want loyalty, get yourself a dog."
