Fülöp Sad to See Keane Leave - Ipswich Town News
Keeper Márton Fülöp says he’s sad to see former manager Roy Keane depart but admits that the Irishman sometimes had harsh words for his players after defeats. Fülöp was signed by Keane at both Sunderland and Town.
The Hungarian international said: "I'm sad about Roy Keane's departure and about the fact that he couldn't be successful. He has two sides. One is a very kind man, but after the games sometimes he said things that he maybe shouldn't have. But this is true for all managers.
"He signed me for two clubs, so I can't say any bad words about him. I've never had problems with him."
Fülöp conceded seven goals at Stamford Bridge for the second time in his career on Sunday — he was in goal when Sunderland lost 7-2 a year ago next Sunday — but feels he didn't play too badly: "I don't think I can be blamed for any of the seven goals we conceded, what's more I made some great saves which prevented an even bigger loss.”
The 27-year-old says he has a better record against Wednesday’s Carling Cup semi-final opponents: "I've had three games in my career against Arsenal and I’ve conceded only one goal, so this is a completely different situation for me if I compare it to Chelsea.
"What's more, when I made my Premier League debut, we won 1-0 against Arsenal, so I have great memories."
