Roy Keane on Jude Bellingham winning back-to-back Man of the Match awards for England after saying a Ghana player deserved the previous one:
🗣️ “This is exactly why I respect Jude Bellingham so much. Most players would've celebrated the award and moved on, but he chose humility. He said a Ghana player deserved it, and then he came back and produced another Man of the Match performance. That's real class.”
“Talent gets you noticed, but humility earns you respect. Bellingham isn't chasing individual awards he's chasing victories for England. That's the mentality every young footballer should look up to.”
“The best players let their football do the talking, and that's exactly what Jude has done. Back-to-back Man of the Match performances while staying grounded tells you everything about his character.”
“England have found more than a world-class midfielder they've found a leader. Players with this level of quality and humility don't come around very often, and that's why the dressing room will follow him anywhere.”
“Football will always remember the goals and assists, but teammates never forget moments of selflessness. Bellingham proved that greatness isn't just about winning awards it's about the respect you show others when the spotlight is on you.”
Third name on the team sheet.
Only player to take matters into his own hands last EURO’s.
Any other country would be lucky to have him.
Only England hates on mavericks like this, we want yes men instead.
I don't get how people can't understand why this happens. They've played there 30 times in 15 seasons, tickets for the match and train are stupidly expensive and the semis being at the same stadium as the final is stupid.
