ROY KEANE couldn't help but crack a smile after labelling Liverpool star Andy Robertson a "big baby".

The 51-year-old broke his hardman character and had the entire Sky Sports studio in hysterics after Liverpool and Arsenal played out a pulsating 2-2 draw on Sunday.


There was controversy at half-time as Anfield star Robertson appeared to be elbowed by assistant referee Constantine Hatzidakis.

Hatzidakis has now been suspended by ref boss Howard Webb while under investigation following the incident.

"I said at half-time, Robertson what a baby, what a big baby.

"Just get on with the game… baby."

And even Keane couldn't hold back a smile as he delivered the final "baby" – leaving Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards in hysterics.

Keane himself also broke into laughter with his colleagues in stitches next to him.
