Proper Football with Martin Keown

Martin Keown reveals all on his beef with Ruud Van Nistelrooy, how he’d handle Erling Haaland and why Arsene Wenger told him not to eat meat and only have one plain shirt.

This week's guest with Kammy and Ben is Arsenal legend Martin Keown.

He talks about everything from his spat with Ruud van Nistelrooy in 'The Battle of Old Trafford', to playing with Henry and Bergkamp and how he'd handle Erling Haaland today. He also explains why he left Arsenal as a teenager over £50, which player drove Tony Adams crazy in training because he couldn't get near him, why Arsene Wenger said players should only have one car, one watch and one plain shirt and whether Arsenal can win a big trophy this season under Mikel Arteta.

Elsewhere, Kammy reveals he's been approached about a move to Saudi Arabia and in light of the stand-off between Jadon Sancho and Erik ten Hag, he discusses whether it's ever acceptable for a manager to publicly criticise one of his players.
