ROBBIE KEANE is keeping busy by coming up with a brilliant ‘isolation XI’ of Irish players while staying home.
Included in the Tottenham legend’s line-up are Jack Daniels Charlton, Roy Key-No, Jameson McClean, Paul McBra and Shave Given as he paired a household object with each selection – much like James Milner earlier in the week.

Keane came up with some pretty creative puns in comprising the team
Robbie and his family have, like most Irish people, been very dedicated in following the government’s advice to stay home as much as possible in order to limit the spread of Covid-19.
They also were keen to show their appreciation for the monumental efforts that frontline staff are making as they took part in the nationwide minute’s applause earlier this week.
Robbie even made sure to make it clear that they are “the real heroes”.
THANK YOU
He said: “I just want to thank you on behalf of myself and my family.
“All the doctors, the nurses, the carers, everybody associated with the hospitals.
“Putting your lives at risk to save ours. We really appreciate it.”
His wife Claudine added: “Thank you so much. You’re an inspiration to us all.
“We appreciate you so so much. Thank you for putting your lives on the line to keep us safe.
“We really appreciate it.”
Keane then said “you guys are the real heroes” as his two young boys enthusiastically agreed.

The whole country took part in the display at 8pm on Thursday.
Elsewhere in the Keane household, they’ve been keeping spirits up and having a laugh as shown by Claudine’s effort at cutting Robbie’s hair.
Both seemed happy enough with the end result in what is a tricky situation that most men can probably relate to as barbers are among the non-essential businesses that have been told to close.
