Keane: Outlaw artificial pitches

Robbie Keane will aim to secure his third MLS Cup in four years on Sunday but that hasn’t stopped him laying into the stateside league.

Since 2011, the Irish striker has made America the home of himself and his family as LA Galaxy’s marquee import.

Although the arrivals of fellow former Premier League stars Thierry Henry and Jermain Defoe delivered another extra degree of prestige to the MLS, Keane insists they must outlaw artificial pitches and overhaul the college development model to thrive.
