Summary
Hola Big Interview listeners!
In the first part of my Big Interview with Robbie Keane the former Spurs striker delivers fierce criticism of the way that bigger wages have diminished the desire of young, talented footballers to make it make it in the game.
It is a subject which continues to rile Robbie and he compares the attitudes of some promising young players today with dedicated winners like Roy Keane and Luka Modric. Both of those men would feature in Robbie's dream five-a-side team.
And the Irishman also recounts his remarkable spell playing alongside David Beckham in LA.
