By any measure you like, no - Roy Keane is not the best player to play for Ireland.

The most capped is Steve Staunton with 102 caps between 1988 and 2002. Keane is only the 18th most capped player with 67 games between 1991 and 2005.

In terms of goalscorers, Roy scored 9 goals in his International career. His namesake, Robbie Keane tops the record books with 41 goals in 96 games.

After throwing a tantrum during the 2002 FIFA World Cup and leaving the Irish team to travel home, unleashing a violent stream of profanity at the team and the manager, Keane was probably the most hated man in all of Ireland.
